I haven't posted in a while, but wanted to share.
Before being diagnosed or treated, I gave birth and it was terribly traumatic for me. I was frozen with fear and my daughter had to be delivered with a vacuum. I decided a couple of years ago that I could give birth without that kind of fear and started researching and mentally preparing. I did it, just the way I wanted to!!! The doctor was very understanding and honored my request to not be touched. He just stood there calmly while I delivered her myself. I did it without any drugs so I could retain my mobility and feeling of control. I got spooked a few times, but it passed quickly. It was beautiful and peaceful.
