Hi everyone, I’m currently 34 weeks and 3 days and I’m trying to collect my thoughts and get everything in order before this little babe comes!

I have a couple questions:

•Does anyone have any mantras they used that helped them during labor? If so please share!

•Would you suggest diffusing essential oils during labor and delivery and if so which oils or blends?

• What did you wear during your L&D if you birthed in a bed and not a tub. I’m thinking a cami type bra of some kind but not sure about bottoms?

• What positions did you find best helped you during contractions and what position did you end up giving birth in?

• If you’ve been diagnosed with gestational diabetes did it affect your birth at all?

I’m a ftm and just want all the wisdom and knowledge you all can share with me!
