A Book I'm Reading

I checked out several baby books and a knitting book from the library a few days ago. Right now, I'm reading "Baby Love: Choosing motherhood after a lifetime of ambivalence" by Rebecca Walker. The title seems to be inappropriate. She talks in the first few pages about how she wanted a baby for years and years and years. She gets substantially more ambivalent after she gets pregnant.

Anyhow, the point of this post is that I wanted to share a quote that I think explains why I don't want to give birth in a hospital. "Episiotomy, C-section, I just don't want to be lying there helpless and at the mercy of a bunch of doctors in a hurry to get to their golf game."
