I didn't have an epidural just gas and air :) I was fine xx

Thank you ladies! I'm just a little clueless 😂 and people like to shove their opinions onto me at times !! Xxx

Definitely have water birth, I had one with Dylan and with him being my first I thought I wouldn't cope but it eased the pain so much xx

My sister had a water birth wih her third and to date says it 2was the easiest labour she had. she's had 5 children so she had a lot of experience to choose from. But like the others have said things didn't work out to plan. She was offered it in the spot and she accepted it. The next 2 times she planned for it but it just didn't happen. 4th time coz hey thought hey might have to do a c-section and 5th time coz she needed more monitoring than usual coz she had quite bad gestational diabetes. They actually though it wouldn't go away after the baby.

I had a birth plan and wanted a water birth. In the end I had to be induced so couldn't have one. Nothing on my birth plan went to plan! I won't bother with one next time as you can't plan a birth - just go with whatever is right at the time x

I had planned water births with all 3 of mine but my labours was that fast I couldn't have them! I don't plan labour now, what happens happens lol! xx

Exactly what @sara-lou said! I requested a water birth but in the end couldnt have one due to there not being enough staff xx

Don't listen to what others say as everyones experiences is different. You may well decide you want an epidural. You may not get a water birth even if you request one. It's good to have plan a, b & c as you never know how it will go!

Don't listen to other people hun, do what you want :) You can always change your mind :) I didnt need/want an epidural and only had gas and air from 8cm's...I also had a back to back labour...and was pushing on nothing for an hour...I had to have a spinal because my girls head was stuck at the wrong angle....I would never ever choose it! I couldn't get up for like 24 hours! Xxx

Go with the water birth if u change your mind get the epidural few who have waterbirths have epidurals
