    So from you I need:
    Did you use any drugs in your birth?
    Did you have complications during your birth?
    Did you experience any feelings of dissapointment, disempowerment and traumatisation?
    DD i used nothing until she presented tachycardic which was after 17.5hrs of labour, was then rushed for an emergancy ceaser.
    DS i used gas after 2 days of labour then finally 2 hrs before another emergancy ceaser due to bradycardia, i had an epi. (labour was 62hrs all up)
    Both were spontanous labours, DD was spontanous rupture of membranes where as DS was assisted. DD i didnt dilated past 1cm due to position and being postierer. DS i managed to get to 8cms also postierer and brow presentation.

    I was disapointed in both my births but certainly not disempowered or traumatised. Both times a vaginal delivery was tried for and encouraged but when it all turned sour there was nothing else that could have been done to help them out any other way.
