Consider this though: next time you see/hear someone who you think is 'judging' you... decide that actually, you're okay. That it's nothing to do with you, it's THEIR issues and immature behaviour. They do not have the life skills to respect other's decisions... and why should they care about what you choose and what you want? It's nothing to do with them... but it is to do with their own issues or lack of life skills. So don't let it get to you. You did the right thing for YOU. Perhaps it's not what you wanted or would choose now. But its part of your journey and happened because it meant to... and you can choose to learn and grow from it too Be it a lesson in how to deal with judgmental people... or a purpose you might have in life to inform and educate others... or perhaps get a deeper understanding of what it's like to live in another set of shoes based on an event happening which you didnt expect.
That's actually really sound advice. Well said Kelly

Hindsight is a beautiful thing - it just comes at the wrong time. For me, my first birth was filled with interventions under an OB. It is because of my analysis of the situation and research to alternative options that I've made a huge change in my birthing philosophy this time around
