Iqra Aziz wants people to stop judging mothers who have C-section births

Actor Iqra Aziz took to social media to share her thoughts on an issue that isn’t publicly talked about too often — the judgment many mothers receive when they deliver their child via a Caesarean section as opposed to a natural delivery.

The Suno Chanda actor shared her husband Yasir Hussain’s Instagram story about appreciating women who’ve delivered through C-section and added her own thoughts on the matter. “I probably wouldn’t have had the confidence to tell the world how Kabir was born because of our maashra [society] being judgemental (I admit I was one of them at some point),” she said, after which she addressed Hussain. “But my love, by (sharing this post) you have made me feel loved and appreciated. Love you for always giving me the confidence.

“Shout out to all the ladies who went through a major surgery to bring their child safely into this world,” continued Aziz. She went on to direct the reader’s attention to her husband’s post in case the reader is a mother who’s had a C-section.

In Pakistan, there is strong prejudice against Caesarean sections. They are often considered as ‘easy births’, a prejudice which translates into judgement against the mother who has them. Mothers who’ve had Caesarean deliveries are often looked down upon and we’re glad Aziz, and Hussain, brought up this oft ignored societal issue to light by bravely sharing her own experience.

Aziz and Hussain became parents to little Kabir Hussain in 2021. Aziz often shares about her experiences as a new mother on social media. In November, she posted a vlog showing a day in her life as a new mother, highlighting the struggles and joys motherhood brought to her life.

“Sometimes things get way too difficult, it’s tiring and upsetting and this is motherhood.” The actor said in the vlog, alluding to moments when everything crashes down and you need to find your way up. “There are emotions and lots of other things but it’s most certainly not easy,” said a teary eyed Aziz, who then assured herself that she will be “alright in a short while.”

On Tuesday, the National Minority Commission Act 2024 was adopted by the federal cabinet.

An eight-point agenda was discussed at a federal cabinet meeting in Islamabad, which was presided over by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.

There were presentations of the Rightsizing Committee’s recommendations regarding federal institutions. There was also discussion about combining the Narcotics Division with the Ministry of Interior and putting the Aviation Division under the Ministry of Defense.

Decisions made by the preceding Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) meeting were approved by the government.

Speaking at the gathering, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif urged proactive measures to tackle the issues facing the education system.

“This will be a major national service,” he said, urging the Education Minister to work closely with the provinces to promote education.

The prime minister noted that the bulk of Pakistan’s 22.8 million unschooled children are girls.

The prime minister called the restart of PIA flights to Europe a significant accomplishment. In order to simplify travel for Pakistani passengers, he expressed optimism that flights to Britain would also restart.

Shehbaz Sharif announced the opening of a new crossing point at Panjgur on the Pakistan-Iran border, claiming it will encourage lawful trade and aid in the fight against smuggling. He praised Iran for helping to open the new crossing point.

The prime minister was pleased to see Kurram’s situation return to normal. According to him, the region was receiving food supplies and medications. “I am confident that all parties involved will work together to maintain peace,” he said.

According to the prime minister, the security forces are still fighting terrorists. In Balochistan, he claimed, 27 terrorists were killed in an intelligence-based operation.

He paid homage to security personnel’s sacrifices, saying they would live on in memory. He pledged to eradicate Fitna al Khwarij completely and emphasized that peace would be restored in the nation, just as it had been in 2018 under Nawaz Sharif’s leadership.
