I had my son at 32 weeks, a friend asked me about my birth experience so I told her. Honestly, despite it being early, spontaneous, traumatic, it wasn't awful (pain wise). I mentioned how I'd do it all again, giving birth was a great experience (despite it all).
Another friend chimes in about how small my baby was so basically the pain wouldn't have been the same as if I gave birth full term.
So yeah, I guess my experience wasn't valid.
That really hurt. Just wanted to vent.
