My daughter was born in a hospital setting and I had an easy delivery but she, in turn, had to have a C-section with the birth of her daughter. They both were in distress and I am so thankful that they were in s hospital setting!Connie Porter Saundershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09234596850866029756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474271316278058173.post-11179622205699353032015-11-03T11:09:20.353-05:002015-11-03T11:09:20.353-05:00Thanks for stopping by Kelly!

I have seen the advantages to both sides and, regardless, they are equally miraculous and beautiful. Since I had an incredibly complicated first experience, I remember being so grateful for all of the hospital staff that had assisted and/or played a part in my daughters birth.
