@orionsmomma hospitals like that are like forcing a female to go all natural (without pain medication; epidural) that's why I don't agree with it. Yes, I've wanted to do all natural but by choice, not force. And my 2nd baby came a lot quicker than my 1st and my doctor back in my home town who delivered them both told me it'll only go quicker and smoother. I didn't even push with my 2nd, I let my contractions push her out. I'm luckily only 5 minutes away from the hospital I'll be delivering at, but I don't know if I'll still make it because once I reached 4cm with my first 2 I was 10cm within an hour-2 hours later ready to push.

Oh yeah. Over here where I’m at they won’t keep you unless you’re 5 cm and contractions less than 5 minutes apart. 🙄
