Feel like a real birth was stolen

Casey

Has anyone needed to have a section last minute even though they went through labor and you just feel like the labor you wanted was stolen from you?

I know I should be happy, my little man is here and he’s healthy.. but I went through my whole pregnancy preparing myself for a vaginal unmedicated birth. Where he came when he was ready… but instead my doctor induced me for no reason and I was in labor for 3 days. Balloon, TRYING to break my water 2 times, Pitocin at 28!, and contractions 15 seconds apart with no dilation… I was forced to have my baby via c section. The only thing that went right in my birth plan was it was completely unmedicated up until the c-section.

I’ve been depressed since and have night terrors because of the trauma I went through when they tried to break my water and they put the balloon in and took it out. Every time I think I’m feeling better, I start to break down again. I couldn’t even enjoy my little man the first 2 weeks 😔

I just want to know im not alone..
