I am so angry for you - why should we have to fight so hard just to give birth? Those hospitals get us at our most vunerable and least able to fight back and SHAME on the lot of them. "You're not allowed..." I swear I'm never going to have another antenatal appointment, let alone let a medical person near me next birth! Goals are powerful, yes, but medical bullies can be more so when you're tired, hungry and constantly undermined in your belief that your body was made to give birth.
