JazahMum - NO, you shouldn't AT ALL feel so uncomfortable voicing your thoughts!! I feel pretty much the same - DD1 was induced and I had not done enough research to know the risks involved. I was the one who asked for it, my doctor went along with it, and I nearly died. But, because DD1 was never in danger and I had no idea BB existed, I was okay with how things went because I knew that with all births, there was the potential for things to go seriously wrong, and I was just glad that it was me who was 'hurt' and not my beautiful baby girl. Then I discovered BB and learned more and tbh I'm still a bit angry with myself for not doing more research on inductions before going ahead with it, but I did what I could with the information I could find, and really, until finding BB, I had no idea that my experience was anything other than normal.
I scared the pants off myself when I was pg with DD2, because every story of late loss I read involved babies that were overdue - heart beating strong one minute, mum waiting for labour to start... then waking up the next morning to find the little angel had flown. I was overdue myself and could barely sleep for poking my belly every two minutes to make sure all was well in there - if I'd never had access to a forum like this, I would never have realised that it's not uncommon for overdue babies to be born sleeping, kwim?? So yeah, I agree, in some cases ignorance is indeed bliss! I don't think you should feel at all uncomfortable saying it out loud, especially here - if we know anything, it's that everybody's experiences and feelings are different and I would hope that we all respect those feelings, regardless of our own.
