Each woman and each birth is so different that it's very important to assess where that woman is at with her mindset.I have very little tolerance for narrow-minded, rigid attitudes toward birth. The misinformation I hear as well drives me nuts! Anyway, keep up the good work.LauraThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15986846093055282121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-14396393655328159222009-11-22T01:10:54.864-06:002009-11-22T01:10:54.864-06:00.....................................................<a href="http://sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://woman.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexdiy.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex999.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://playgirl.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://love.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex520.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://utshow.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://uthome.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut387.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://www.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://007sex.sexydx.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://woman.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexdiy.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex999.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://playgirl.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://love.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex520.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://utshow.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://uthome.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut387.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://www.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://007sex.sexy758.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://woman.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexdiy.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex999.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://playgirl.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://love.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex520.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://utshow.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://uthome.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut387.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://www.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://007sex.sexy888.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://woman.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexdiy.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex999.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://playgirl.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://love.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex520.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://utshow.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://uthome.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut387.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://www.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://007sex.sexy5320.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://woman.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexy.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sexdiy.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex999.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://playgirl.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://love.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex520.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://sex.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://utshow.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://uthome.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut387.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://ut.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://www.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a><a href="http://007sex.sexy5366.info" rel="nofollow">.</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-73806853706499502192009-11-21T21:43:32.303-06:002009-11-21T21:43:32.303-06:00Stated beautifully!

It worked well FOR ME, and I wouldn't have it any other way. And you are totally and spot on. There is no such thing as a second class birth. Way to be right on !!!!!! You can be my nurse the next time I have a baby, (you know, if that happens ;).

I...I agree as well and I've taken flack for it. I run in social circles where homebirth is common and along with that the attitude that anything other then an unmucked with homebirth is 'lesser'. <br /><br />One woman's dream birth, is another's nightmare. Not every woman feels birth is a lifechanging experience in and of itself, quite a few women see it as a means to and end that must be endured and definitely not embraced. While statistically an unmedicated birth and PP period is "better" for the baby, I don't think the amount of adrenalin and cortisol that would be released into the system of a mother going through an unmedicated birth, not by choice and possibly panicking, is any better then an epidural.<br />So much of how a woman feels about her labor is in her head, and therefore is very individual. We say feelings can't be right or wrong, is if fair to the woman who is satisfied with her scheduled C-section to tell her she had a 2nd class birth and should be unhappy about it? That she should feel a loss even if she doesn't? There are enough women who ARE unhappy with their birth experience, why do we have to create more?<br /><br />I've done it all. C-section, VBAC au naturale, VBAC with stadol and VBAC with epidural.One of those natural ones, I had PE (on mag) and a broken foot and was induced. I had two doulas and I never asked or wanted the epidural but it was HARD, very very hard. <br />I was induced again with my last one because of PIH. I got an epidural. I was physically exhausted, had no support (dh is great husband, crummy labor coach) and just didn't have it in me to go unmedicated. It took me a while to come to terms with the epi as it was the first one I had had in 11 years. I don't feel guilty about it anymore and if I am faced with another middle of the night, emergency induction with no support I'll probably do it again.MentalMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18278030114279292954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-46583496574363063382009-11-20T10:32:47.995-06:002009-11-20T10:32:47.995-06:00I 100% agree, and thank you for supporting Moms to...I 100% agree, and thank you for supporting Moms to have the birth experience that they choose.<br /><br />I had an emergency c-section under GA with my first, a VBAC with an epidural with my second, and a VBAC "au naturale" with my third. Each birth and baby were a different story, but I wouldn't have changed (much of) it for the world...I could have done w/o the emergency part of #1's ;)<br /><br />Each of my boys were great breastfeeders from the get-go, and I did not feel that I "missed out" on bonding with my first b/c of the c/s, or with my second b/c of the epidural.<br /><br />Again thank you for supporting Mamas in reaching their goals, and for not rating any birth as "second class". Each and every baby conceived in this world is a miracle, and so is their birth!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09000554887585110598noreply@blogger.com
