Not really, in the sense that I'm of the opinion that media places too much pressure on right and wrong ways to deliver and also in regards to breastfeeding. I, too, was induced, went through to the next morning, pushing, but the doctor offered a csection, my son's hairy little head left it impossible to tell what wasn't going right. He was faced wrong, could have broken his neck. I certainly bonded post natal, and I knew I was physically incapable of breastfeeding. Vbac was discussed with son 2, until placenta previa presented itself. That was one uncomfortable pregnancy. Son #3 was an obvious csection.

Were you treated for post parthum depression, seeing you felt lack of maternal bonding/connection?

My boys all had three different formulas and are close knit as a family .

I will restate, too much unnecessary societal pressure.
