Why shop?
[Read the article: Dropping shopping]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I didn't mind the "fluff" of the piece, but I wished it dug deeper. I know friends who drop to shop to the point of jeopardizing their credit and they still keep shopping. I wish Ryzik could examine the behavior of shopping more and why women do it. There are indeed shopaholics in the world, and I'm sure all of us at one time, have found ourselves binge shopping. Is it because it can be a creative outlet? Is it an activity for lack of something more meaningful? It would have been a better article if Ryzik had gotten more out of the stylists and shopping friends than she did.

thanks for clarifying
[Read the article: "Too posh to push"?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Thanks for asking the tough questions regarding the increase in C-sections in this country, although I hope there will be a follow-up piece with some answers.
Many of my friends are reaching that age when they think about having kids, but I have two women friends nowhere near prgenant (they want kids in 2-3 years) who have already decided birth by C-section is the optimal way to go. They want to avoid the pain of chidlbirth. I am trying to tell them that maybe they should make that decision when they get there.
I had a vaginal birth, and hemorrhaged afterwards. Birth is just a messy, painful process, and there is no way around that.
