"No one gave us any reassurance; it was all like some sick nightmare... Everyone in the room looked very distressed, I could feel their shaky hands on my body. If they'd allowed me to have a planned c-section, things could have been very different." She emotionally shared: "I really was not a good parent for a very long time. For most of his first few months I couldn't have told you what he was doing or even who was looking after him. When I did see him, I would hold him at arm's length. I didn't talk or sing to him."
