I'm sorry you had to hear things like that when you were already so upset about the CS anyway. Three cheers for hbacs! And welcome to the site. :-) Bah, what a depressing nurse.

When I had a c/s for my first child, a nurse was kind enough to say "Aren't you glad you didn't have a midwife. At least your baby is safe." I tried very hard not to cry at that point. And no, I wish I'd had a midwife, maybe he wouldn't have turned breech... even if he did, I'd have had more support and caring and compassion! I've taken great joy in having the staff "let know" that I've had two hbacs since that fateful day. Keep it up... perhaps a super hero costume needs to be designed!? K Subversive midwifery is lovely!
