According to her, while she was in active labor, the doctor obtained a court order for a C-section, despite her refusal.

In the video caption, she wrote, “The doctor takes you to court while in labor to give you a C-section against your will.”

She went on to elaborate: “Imagine arriving at the hospital in labor, only for the doctors to take you to COURT while in active labor, trying to obtain an order for a NON-EMERGENCY C-section against your WILL! This was just part of the terrifying ordeal I faced a few weeks ago at UF Health Downtown in Jacksonville.”

As her story spread, concerned viewers flooded the comment section, sharing their thoughts on the ordeal.

See some reactions below: 

Sarah Pierce: “My first was breeched so I had a c-section I hemorrhaged 2 days later. My doctor gave me the option to have my second VBAC but said the risk of me hemorrhaging again was high I decided against VBAC.”

MiMi ✨: “I need to more context. It’s impossible for me to believe that they went to this extent if it wasn’t medically necessary.”

msKolivee: “I’m not saying I don’t believe mama, I’m not saying I believe the doctor … but when they told me, my sons head was too big to deliver, I believed MY doctor because 1. I didn’t want my son to suffer.”

MeloEstrella: “I went it labor naturally and me and the baby were doing so well that I requested that I wanted to try VBAC. So much drama between me and the Drs.”

Chyna💕: “Did they remove the child from your care after this or did they just do it for the hassle?”
