“This sounded good 鈥� I like physical experiences that involve surrender. I didn鈥檛 know, however, very much about experiences that demand surrender 鈥� that run over you like a truck, with no safe word to stop it. I was ready to scream, but labor turned out to be the quietest experience of my life.”
― Maggie Nelson, The Argonauts
