How was your pregnancy? Normal
How did you feel about your upcoming birth? Excited
Description of your birth experience:
Back ache for days, OP baby, 21 hours of hard labor, 2 hours of pushing. The best day of my life. I felt very strong and supported.
How did you feel after the birth (first month)? Amazing. I had the power to do anything
How did you feel six months after the birth? One year? Now?
Still felt great, wanted to tell everyone. It was a pivotal moment in my life and led me to be a doula as well as studying to be a midwife.
What did you learn from this birth?
You can do anything if you want it bad enough. Education is true empowerment.
