You won't be sorry! We had...That is great news! You won't be sorry! We had our first home birth (and hopefully not our last) on Mother's Day and it was awesome! A month later I am still reveling in all the wonderfulness it was. It was totally different from any other birth! The stress of trying to get to the hospital wasn't there! I just relaxed and hung out in my bathtub and dealt with contraction after contraction as they came. When I felt like pushing I went downstairs, got in the birthing tub and had a baby! Then when it was all over I climbed in bed and snuggled with my newborn all night! My biggest advice is make sure you have a doula or the midwife has an assistant. That was so amazing to have someone caring for you lovingly and cleaning everything up! When I came downstairs the next morning it was like nothing had happened! I can't wait to hear about your journey! A few other good reads are Gentle Birth Choices and A Thinking Woman's guide to childbirth! Exciting news for sure!Tiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06828514423251025397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3779107950766426781.post-10376897583584862672010-06-08T13:48:41.679-05:002010-06-08T13:48:41.679-05:00oh I love that you want to do this!

Not sure ...I am excited to hear about how it goes. Not sure if you know but we did our fourth naturally but at St Vincents. God truly blessed us as a nurse who was not on duty that day felt called to come into work to help out. She was a big supprter of natural delivery, understood the Bradley method and was a huge support when the other nurses just wanted to give me drugs, or told me not to push cuz' the DR was not there yet (she actually was putting on gloves to catch the baby when DR walked in). Anyway, God was faithful and provided in a wonderful way. I am sure He will take care of you all too! If we are blessed with another child I will do it naturally again!Natashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468288295677685300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3779107950766426781.post-67520929530294938522010-06-08T12:52:13.147-05:002010-06-08T12:52:13.147-05:00have at it! i'll be looking forward to hearin...have at it! i'll be looking forward to hearing the tale.ktNcompanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08865351222695995270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3779107950766426781.post-68863357029538811302010-06-08T11:59:33.869-05:002010-06-08T11:59:33.869-05:00I LOVE Ina May...

I also kinda considered a home birth... It's unfortunate that the state of Arkansas doesn't embrace midwifery like most of the rest o the country. I did have a great experience at the hospital, but I was only there 3 hours. I will be praying for your home delivery and your pregnancy. I hear that water births are awesome! I really enjoy reading your blogs also. The thought of home birth has crossed my mind with this one too... We'll have to wait and see.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04014603795103716818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3779107950766426781.post-1763972374795106782010-06-08T10:59:16.819-05:002010-06-08T10:59:16.819-05:00I LOVE it!
