Many hugs, sweetie. As you know, I really can relate to where you're coming from on this one. If there's anything I can do, just let me know.

Keeping your eyes on the prize is important, it's true. But I know I faced a real sense of loss when my hopes for a vaginal delivery were destroyed, and it was really important to me to process that loss and work my way through it. I found it really annoying and demeaning when other people tried to invalidate those feelings and that process.
