Hey everyone, I’ll be having my first baby this year and I’m 36. I really want to have a natural birth if possible. I will be preparing for all outcomes of course, but my first preference is a natural delivery.

I’d love to hear from Moms who gave birth at 35 plus and were able to do so vaginally, with and without pain medication. The C-section rate being higher for older Moms kinda freaks me out. I’ll do it if I have to but it’s really not my preference.

Anyone willing to share?
