I didn’t get the birth I wanted. I still felt completely in control.
I was determined to have a vbac2 and I best prepared for this by doing a hypnobirthing course. The course filled me with enthusiasm and confidence whilst also dealing/processing past birth trauma. I would recommend it to anyone as it also helped me deal with contractions and every day stress!
Although I did not get the birth I wanted and dreamed of I still felt in control of my decisions and fully empowered to make the right choices for me at my birth!
