My home water birth vbac story :) *PIX*
So this morning I woke up at 745am to a contraction and bloody show. I didnt have any contractions after that so I took a shower to see if I would have any more contractions and just standing in the shower they hit really fast and hard. I let my backup midwife know after I got out of the shower. The contractions hit every 2 minutes after my shower about an hour later. I got in the birthing pool and they got very very intense, I wanted to push right away so I squatted so my pelvis would open up better and held my hubbys hand (in which I almost broke LOL). I didnt really push but my body did for me as I was squatted in the pool at the edge. It was very intense as baby was coming out, it went soooo fast. At the last moment I pushed and moaned and growled with everything I had and she slid out so fast!
She weighed 7.2lbs, 19 1/2 inches long and nursed as soon as I brought her up out of the water! She came at 1138am today!! Crazy day for me and hubby-this was his first baby delivered vaginally as our son was preemie and c section. I was due the 18th.
We so far decided on Madison Raelin unless we change our minds again

It probably isnt, but thats the image I have in my head now, lol. Was it super messy? Who cleaned up after all was said and done?
After the birth of my son I have my hubby convinced to have a home water birth the next time around.
Im glad yours went so well!
