I wrote this 2 years ago and so worth putting it out there again!
As a Doula who has seen birth in a variety of ways, please be careful of the words you choose when describing the birth of a baby…an epidural does not make you a failure, pitocin does not make you a failure, hospital births do not make you a failure, c-sections do not make you a failure!! Giving birth any way you desire with whatever outcome makes you the best mom ever because in the end you chose life!!!
