To Magazine, or Not to Magazine: Corinne's birth story

Few of us enter pregnancy and delivery with a crystal clear picture of what the experience will be like the first time.  In some ways, this makes sense, given that everyone's experience will be unique in certain ways, depending on their health, their age, their partner, their history...but the distance between the narrative today's guest received from her mother and her actual experience can only be measured in lightyears....to be fair to her mother who gave birth in the 50s, it was a very different time in maternal care...but carrying this version of the story among others can have real consequence, if not for how her own delivery developed, it has the potential to affect how she understood her own experience.
