I have already told you about depression in the first pregnancy, I told you about the first, complicated delivery, lasting 33 hours, which ended in a cesarean section under full anesthesia. I have already talked about postpartum complications, about the swelling that makes it impossible to move, about the rectocele, about the stretched skin of intimate places, a “memento” of a huge swelling. I mentioned my second pregnancy, in which my sacrum broke in the fifth month. I told you about postpartum depression after the second birth – she wrote.

This time, however, Okupnik decided to share a story, the punch line of which is, of course, the key word of the ongoing protests –choice. The singer told how at the second childbirth in the United States she was offered the possibility of ligation of the fallopian tubes. She then refused, but asked for it in Poland when she realized that she did not want to have any more children. Unfortunately, this time the answer was negative …

In the USA, where I gave birth to both my children, I was allowed to make a choice before the second emperor, which had to be performed due to a sacrum fracture. The doctor in charge of the pregnancy, knowing my medical history and knowing that Tyniu was to be my second and last child, asked if I wanted my fallopian tubes tied during cesarean. (…) At that moment I said: No, thank you. In the summer of this year, I underwent another gynecological operation. Before surgery, I asked for tubal ligation. The doctor fully understood my request, but informed that this procedure is not fully legal in Poland. My reaction is shock, anger, misunderstanding - wspomina.

Tatiana admits that the doctor’s refusal upset her greatly, hence she understands the anger of women who are fighting for their rights in the streets of Polish cities today.

How is it possible that a man in my country can decide that I do not want or can not have any more children and I am not given that choice ?! I did not invite politicians to my bedroom and they should not decide what life choices I can and cannot make – he says.
–
The entire post was written by the artist, among others hashtags #free choice, #mybody choice, and #equalitythereby implying to the unaware that he fully supports the postulates of the Women’s Strike. However, judging by the warm comments, it was not even necessary, and the followers thanked her for her important voice in the nationwide discussion on recent events.
