[quote=Anonymous]I have had two births that, with different care providers, would probably have felt traumatic afterward. In my first, pushing for like 3 hours, episiotomy at the end, and then a hemorrhage that resulted in me barely seeing my baby until she was an hour old. With my second, baby was malpositioned and after 2 hours of pushing, the doctor used a vacuum was used to slightly rotate her head. He was very clear that if it did not work, we were headed to the OR. However, because of the relationship I had with them, it felt like we were a team managing things as they came up. OP, is your traumatic experience based on what happened or on how you were treated when it happened? I think that you’d process the trauma differently depending which. [/quote]
