How to cope with precipitous labor

Hi mommies,


This is my 3rd pregnancy. My first was delivered via c-section for medical reasons. For my second an elective c-section was planned but i had a very traumatic VBAC right next to the OR table due to a very fast and viscious precipitous labor. It left me with a lot of genital and emotional trauma and, needless to say, i have absolutely no dignity left after the way I acted throughout the labor due to the excruciating, unrelenting pain. Now I am terrified of another precipitous labor this time around, but I know the chances of it happening again is high. I’ve scoured the internet to find article on how to cope emotionally and physically, but can find none. I can just giggle a little when I read the articles on “how to cope with natural child birth pain”, as none of the advice given will be able to tame the precipitous labor beast! 

Any advice from the amazing strong woman who have survived it more than once?
