I'm nearly 38 weeks and can't make a decision on how I'm going to give birth. Originally I'd planned just a normal laid on the bed birth but my midwife said to have another think as she thinks giving birth on the bed is old fashioned. She mentioned water birth. This has been playing on my mind ever since as I'd love to try it but unsure on what to expect as this is my first baby. Can I still have pain relief whilst having a water birth? Do you have to sit butt naked in the pool or can I wear a top? As I'm self conscious of my top half. Can I be on all fours in the pool? I have so many questions! Please can someone explain to me what a water birth is all about and is it worth it? Thankyou!
