While I agree the easy mindset carries over into the childbirth, I'm tired of the unhappy mom = unhappy baby being a norm. Yes, there are times when mom's unhappiness must be considered, but this if often an excuse for much bad parenting through adulthood. When we start and encourage that attitude from birth...it is very sad.
