Thread: Stephie's (stephiebuffie) lodge!! (prenatal)

Stephie, take the time to grieve. The loss of the birth experience you'd hoped for is real. Yes, you have a great baby, but you didn't have the start you wanted. It's ok to feel awful about it.

I think it took me a year to get over my midwifery practice forcing me to go to the hospital for my first birth. Maybe I'm not over it yet. (And it was a pretty good birth.)

It's hard for a man to understand. Maybe you might consider posting to our healing thread or finding some like-minded new moms to talk about the birthing experience together.

I started a baby journel just thought I'd share
