What are people's experience of the options they were given for labour and birth? I would like to have as natural an experience as possible but a colleague at work (T1, older lady so would have had her kids in the 80s and 90s) seems to think that a caesarean is inevitable.
Of course, I understand that the health of the baby and the mother override any birth choices we have made but, to what extent do diabetic have the same freedom as non diabetic mothers?
