I got a few when I was pg. I asked how many children had been born to woman talking after said story. Then informed them that it couldn't be that bad and I'm not put off.
I do have my own "horror story" - that I don't share unless people ask. And, tbh, after working through it, it wasn't that bad. It wouldn't put me off having another child, never would have done even in the darkest of days. It would put me off one certain midwife in the hospital, but I'm having a freebirth if there's a next time as I got so sick of the midwives telling me I needed drugs I'm not going through that again. Hospitals don't try to hurt the baby. They want what's best for the baby.
