That talk helped to calm my nerves, and I went in with the most positive attitude that I could have. I don't regret expecting the best. Next time I must expect the best as well. I've never been one to prepare myself by thinking the worst. <br /><br />What I can change for next time is how I talk to myself afterward. I became pregnant to have a healthy child in the end, not necessarily to have a lovely birth experience. Lovely birth experiences exist -- yours is an example and you should never hesitate to share it. While my birth experience was not what I had planned or hoped, the end result is more beautiful than I could have ever hoped for!Laura Monchuk {Saskmom}https://www.blogger.com/profile/12706083398582338811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606344474284472385.post-85953429872831516562010-04-20T11:18:17.727-06:002010-04-20T11:18:17.727-06:00You know I will never forgive myself for telling y...You know I will never forgive myself for telling you that it was going to be a piece of cake. We talked for the better part of an hour about hypnobirthing and having a natural birth and how it was going to be smooth sailing for you. After you told me about how difficult your experience was, I vowed never again to tell a mom-to-be what to expect. More than ever I understand how different each experience is and how you can never predict what will happen. You are a brave soul and a wonderful mommy!!!Amy K.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606344474284472385.post-16012784422548640602010-03-13T14:18:06.382-06:002010-03-13T14:18:06.382-06:00Laura my sweet friend.
