That no one can force you to have surgery you know you don't need. When your doctor says we need to go ahead with a c-section because it's late and the anesthesiologist is ready to go home, it's time to call another doctor or better yet, go home and have the birth you were made to have. I wish I could tell her, but I can't. I suppose that just like the trials I've been through before, this too will make me stronger. I have the correct information to give my daughter one day should I be so lucky to have one. Maybe one day I'll attend her homebirth and help welcome my sweet peaceful grandbaby into the family's loving arms.
