[quote=Anonymous]She was the victim of misinformation from natural birth advocates, and as part of the evil that is that misinformation, she is now blaming herself. You need to handle it carefully, with compassion. ICAN is a good resource. I would also just listen, and perhaps point out when the time is right that there is a deeply misogynist bent to much of the natural birth rhetoric. Encourage her to talk to her docs. I had a friend that went through this, and what really helped was her realization that she had been the victim of pernicious misogyny. She was able to reframe her experience and stopped blaming herself. [/quote]
