Anyone have any advice for someone wanting to do an all natural labor?

I'm also a FTM, I'm planning a natural home water birth, with a midwife

I'm a FTM, but my mom had both my sister and I completely natural. she told me to progress as much as I can at home so that I don't have the option for an epidural.

I've always been intrigued about water birth and have done a lot of researching it. When my gramma & Tia heard me answering some questions my cousin had they both said I was crazy for liking the idea. & when I said if I have a hospital delivery I want to try my best to do it naturally my gramma said I wouldn't make it. I told yeah well women used to do it all the time without medicine. It makes me so mad that no one understands that this is my baby and my body.

I feel you girl. Everyone thinks I'm crazy and do think I can do it. It's really discouraging. @canaryv

I wanna do a natural birth but everyone thinks I'm crazy and going to cave in 🙄😒 I have zero support for what I want :/

look into hypnobirthing

What do you do to meditate? @cubanese
