You are not alone! Birth is hard and such an impacting experience on a woman. You definitely birthed your son! But it's also ok to grieve the experience. Especially when you spent months imagining it a different way. That's part of my role as a doula - helping moms process the birth. I hope you have beautiful, successful VBACs in the future, and in the meantime, you find healing as you snuggle your little boy. Many blessings to you!OurUrbanCottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14931604191826660380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7634168248592528013.post-63716838839518376802014-06-06T10:12:51.959-05:002014-06-06T10:12:51.959-05:00Hi, we have never met, but a friend of mine posted...Hi, we have never met, but a friend of mine posted your blog on Facebook a few months ago and I started reading it. It was really cool to follow since I was pregnant, due in February, and you were a few months ahead of me. Anyways all that to say I appreciate this post because I was really hoping for a drug free natural birth and ended up having a c-section. Afterwards it was really hard for me to accept what happend and I felt sorrow for not having the opportunity to "birth" my son. It was hard for me because my baby was healthy and safe so I felt guilty for grieving over what happened. Your post helped me realize that it is okay to feel that way, thanks for letting me know I am not the only one!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05758170008485169340noreply@blogger.com
