Doula lended me these books today & a ball to bounce on :) I'm so excited. She's amazing, makes me…

That is so awesome you got a doula! Is It covered by Tricare or are you paying for one? I've just never heard of anyone having one with Tricare.

I've heard awesome thing about the ina mays book!!!

Kristin, I paid her on my own. She charges 450 with a military discount. I've heard that you can get them through the military for free though, but it seemed easier to just hire the one I wanted.

U can definitely have it med free birth. I had one before with my 3rd it was great.

I got so close with my second but gave in at 7.5cm

With my first I gave in at 6cm after 18 hours of being induced.

Shannae3, that's encouraging! Are you going for it again this time?

Ina May is the bessssssst! Omg. Obsessed with that book. The epitome of empowerment.

All awesome books!!!

Yes! I'm goin to try my best to have a completely med free birth again. the recovery was so much better for me. It kind of like a mind over matter thing as long as u breathe n keep telling ur self u can do it u will.

That's awesome Shaina...I think if I was going for med free I would want to use one also. I'm down with the epidural though.?
