Ryn, I acknowledge that you found your first birth experience to be beyond awful. I am convinced however, that there could be a way for your second birth (if you have another bub) to be different, as in better, without needing to freebirth. Now, I don't know what that would take, I don't know the UK system. It might take a lot. You might need to hire an expensive midwife/doula, you might need to birth in a different country (can't tell you how often I've dreamed of moving to NZ just for the birthing options!). Edited out my story, a bit personal, and it's served its purpose.
I hope this doesn't offend you or anything, and I'm sure our experiences aren't really comparable, but I just wanted to share, and encourage you (and others who may have also had un-fun experiences) that I'm sure you can have a good birth after an awful birth.
