I need your stories !! Water births and birthing centers!
So I’m 21 and on my 4th! I’m married , i have a 2 year old daughter , 9 month old twin boys , and this is my final baby and my 3rd boy, I’m due October 30th !
So with my twins , i was undermined a lot, Almost killed while in preterm labor by neglect from my nurses, and then when i finally did go into active labor at 35 weeks 6 days , they messed up my epidural, and ignored me. I told them i could only not feel my toes and i could feel everything else. They laughed , told me it was just pressure and then i ended up having to give birth to my twins vaginally not numb, so i was screaming as you can imagine (i ended up loving that i got to experience that) because with my first baby i had a working epidural so i knew what it was suppose to feel like.
Anyhow after my ob recently laughed when i brought up my concerns and fears of the staff at that hospital i chose to leave that practice and move on to a doula at a birthing center.
I plan on having a water birth in the tub at the birthing center or even in the bed but on all fours instead of being forced on my back.
And I’m just so proud of myself for finally standing up for myself and choosing the experience i want to have.
I would really love to hear about your experiences! I already know what natural feels like so I’m not worried about pain etc but I’m quite curious on how much you liked it compared to a hospital birth.
