The big birth lie
Article Abstract:
Women are under great social pressure to cope well with childbirth, so it often comes as a great shock when they feel that the cannot bear the pain and need pain-relieving drugs. They feel that they have been let down by other women, who have not told them the truth about how painful childbirth can be. Furthermore, they often believe that they are the only mother who is not coping with the demands of a family and a career. Motherhood is actually the ultimate sacrifice, but few women will admit to this.
