Who's going for Natural Birth???

Question

Curious as to whom is going to birth naturally. Posted this birth affirmation for those that are or want to try natural birth. Feel free to take the picture and use it. ❤️ 🌊

Answer

I'm definitely planning another natural one! This will be my second time and I'm really hoping I get my dream water birth this time. I have a daughter who's 18months and when I had her I barely made it to hospital on time I was 10cm and pushing on arrival. She came so fast, we didn't get to run the water for my birth or even ask me about pain meds (although I never wanted them). I just hope I make it to the hospital this time and also hope i get to try the tub! (I tore really badly the first time with such a quick labor, I heard the water really helps!) bit seriously I loved that I was fully aware, and present and I'm a baby when it comes to pain but I swear it was different with birth. I look back and I don't know how I did it OR how I'm going to do it again BUT I know I'm anxious and excited and prepared. Things can always happen and I'm prepared for that also, my natural dream birth may end up with complications and I'll cross that bridge if we come to it. BUT planning on another natural birth! It was just amazing.

And definitely not knocking anyone's birth dreams or plans! Every single mom is a rockstar for growing and birthing (or adopting) a human being and raising them. No matter how you do it! We are all in this together, and the outcome is the same. As long as everyone is happy and loved that's all we could hope for. Regardless of the journey, do what you think and feel is best for you and have people around who support you. Love and light to everyone! Come on August 😘❤️

Kudos for going natural or even trying to. There's nothing wrong with how you birth or the choices you chose for your birth. Everyone is right in their own decisions!! I'm proud of you. Rather natural or not, I hope you have a beautiful birth and I'm sure it will be!! 😘

Answer

Heck. No. Tried with my first and after 54 hours of induction I ended up with emergency c-section. I am thrilled to have my repeat c-section!!! No labor every again!!! Yay!!!

Answer

Nope not bothering is a little harsh 😫. I have endometriosis, migraines and cluster headaches and for each episode of those things I wish I could turn off the pain with an epidural. I'm hyper sensitive to pain now so think I will go the epidural route to try and keep things calm as poss. But we will see :) just want to do what ever is right for me and baby

Answer

I'm going for it! Rough draft birth plan made 👍 and I'll go over it with my OB when he gets back from his time off. I'll have a doula and a midwife acting as a doula, since DH won't be able to come with me.

Answer

Different women have different definitions of "natural."

Are you talking about unmediciated birth?
Or a vaginal delivery?
Or a delivery without induction?
