All Natural Birth?

Question

Is there anyone else who is planning to have an all natural birth or as close to all natural birth as possible? 
This is my child and I'm nervous about giving birth.

Answer

If you want to truly have an all natural birth, I suggest you look into a birthing center, where there are no drugs available to you. It removes temptation, and all of the employees there are trained for natural births and natural pain relief. Also: look into hiring a doula. They are life savers!!!
And just relax. Women have been giving birth since the beginning of time. Your body knows what it's doing!
Good luck, and a healthy mommy and baby ☺

I had a med free natural birth in a hospital.  My doc really tried to get me to have an epidural or use other drugs.  My nurses and husband were beyond amazing. My sister came and helped convey my wishes to the doc as well.  I also had a acupressure session while in labor.  Went from 7 to 10 cm in about an hour.  I am 5 weeks pregnant and expect to have a similar experience for this one! Good luck and stick to your guns.  You will need support.  If you say you will do it if the pain is bad, well,  the pain is intense. So be prepared!  It was so worth it.  I was waking around within 10 hours of his birth.  The nurses and docs were all amazed.

I plan on doing all natural birth. It's scary but I feel like our bodies were made to give birth. I want to try it at least once just so I know and I hate medicine so I'll avoid that as much as possible. Good luck!

Answer

Me.....I did it before and will again. It was the best thing I've ever done

Answer

I've had 3 all natural home births and they were wonderful I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

Answer

I would love to have a natural birth. But it just depends on the day of labor :)

Answer

My son was an all natural delivery and it went very fast! It was worth it! And I have honestly been in worse pain with a ruptured ovarian cyst.  It is not that bad, just different.  It is a very strange feeling but your body is made for it!!! I am pregnant with baby 2 and planning all natural as well. It is a beautiful thing! GL

Answer

I'm planning one and am nervous about it too. I took Bradley Method classes and it was really helpful. I'm also going to request a nursing team that is experienced in natural birth when I check in at the hospital.

Answer

I will try my best. I'll only have an epidural if I am pretty much dying from pain

Answer

With my first I didn't even realise I was in labour as I thought the pain wasn't that bad, when it got a little worse I went the hospital and I was already 9cm so didn't have anything
