RE: Welcome to the World - Giving Birth in Panama Part 3
It is my firm belief that you never feel more like "a piece of meat" than in a hospital -- anywhere, for any reason. Everyone, including you, seems to lose all sense whatsoever of you as an individual human being.
I'm glad you were able to keep your sense of humor through all this.
Yes, it definitely is hard to enter a hospital and feel like you're the one in charge of yourself. They basically own you when you go in. That's why we've done homebirths in the past and wanted to do one this time. It just didn't work out! Hope you're doing well!!! :)
