[quote=Anonymous]I had a long, intense labor that ended in a c-section. It was not a good labor experience, but I achieved my goal: a healthy baby. Really, isn't healthy baby an healthy mom all that matters? Since I delivered my son, I've had countless friends talk about their amazing, empowering non-medicated labors, and I've heard countless people tell them what a good job they did, and how tough they are. Maybe I'm too sensitive, but it seems to imply that because my labor was medicated and especially bc I had a c-section, I am somehow not tough and I didn't do as good a job as women who deliver naturally. I don't think we need to brag about our birth experiences. It does seem to pit women against each other.[/quote]
