What are messages you got about birth that you're now questioning?
So much of what we “know” about birth wasn’t chosen consciously. It was absorbed through stories, movies, medical narratives family comments, you get the idea. Maybe it was: - “Birth is dangerous.” - “Doctors know best.” - “Your body can’t be trusted.” - “Pain is inevitable.” - “Good mothers comply.” And maybe you didn’t question any of it until recently. What messages about birth did you absorb growing up that you never really questioned until now?
