it's really soothing and it is a great way to have that extra piece of a bond bc your baby comes out with no meds in its system and the water reduces the pain. but yes check out everything on it first!
not hating on it in anyone just a word of advice. i wanted to do one too because i also want to have a natural birth and i heard it was soothing and helped with pain. i brought up to my midwife and she advised against it being anything in the water your baby can take in. any bacteria blood ect... i have mrsa which could also be transferred during this. please look into the possible risks!
