Hi Preggies!! I have decided that I want the most natural birth that I can possible have. I want to be fully in charge of my birthing process and want it to be an experience and something that I will never forget. I have been doing so much research lately about natural home births and natural births in birthing centers. I'm also currently reading Ina May's Guide to Childbirth and it's a refreshing new and insightful prospective on childbirth and it really resonates with me. Has anyone had a natural home birth or natural birth in a birthing center? How was your experience? Or do any of you plan on having a natural birth at home or in a birthing center?
How come theres no group for birth/labour experiences? As a first time mom, I want to know your stories!
I want to have a natural birth, at home. Preferably in a birth pool.
Tell me about yours!
Natural Hospital birth

How many plan to have a natural birth?? If you've experienced natural and or meds how was your experience? Which was better??
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
