[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you PPs, I'm the med free VBAC poster. Free birthers are likely more a product of the OB system who are desperate to have a say in their own birth rather than narcissists trying to live out some fantasy birth.[/quote] I have to say I completely disagree. These people are loons and zealots. I admit with my first child I was pretty intent on having a vaginal birth despite being in a country where elective c-sections were the norm. I had one, and it was rough. I mean, I guess I'm still glad I did it, but it wasn't a transformative experience. For my second child, I had a high-risk pregnancy, with risks to both of us. I had a c-section - vaginal delivery wasn't safe. That experience really changed my mind on birthing "preferences." I decided my only preference was a live baby and hopefully my own survival.[/quote]
