  • I did with four of my kids. And will with this one. I am lucky and have very fast labour, but the though of a needle in my spine does not appeal to me. The main thing would be just concentrat on ur breathing it help for me.
  • @uncaffeinated_katie let me know how that goes! I haven't went to any classes &dk if I will. Idk seems like a waste of money. They can't tell u what's going to happen,ya know? But Congrats on your baby :) let me know how it.goes!
  • I have gone natural and plan on doing it again. I never took any classes. I just do whats comfortable for me.
  • @homebirthadvocate thanks for the knowledge &support!! That gives me a lot of encouragment!!
  • I had my daughter naturally n trust all the breathing training etc goes out the door lol its pain we as woman can bare, im on my 2nd and plan on going natural all d way I just try n tell myself push like your taking a dump lol tmi... VS pushing with your face I busted a vain inside my eye, but either way I feel its better and now I know what to expect so I feel im more prepared tgr second time round good luck n you will do great
  • @beautiful _altar that sounds like the way I'm.going to go :) ! I'm going to go in there pretending there is no such thing as drugs &maybe ill be more focused on.pushing &not thinking if there was "an easier" way lol

  • @homebirthadvocate I just don't want to risk mine &baby's health for no reason. Be a mommy for your baby and just push ladies!!! ;-) :X %%-
  • I am definetly going natural! My 1st 2 were planned inductions ect..and i hated that i want this one to be all natural go into labor water breaking and making it through all of it with absolutly no drugs :) i think my mom might have had me all natural and i was 9lb.9oz!! I cant say for sure she passed away before my first living child was born so i dont have much info on all that.
  • I plan on doing natural again..hoping for a quick labor like my last was about 3 hours. I pray i dont need a c section. and i cant get an epidual even if i wanted..i have a horrible back due to car accidents
  • I walked a lot the week prior heard it speeds up the process but I was in labor for 3 hrs :)
  • Thanks for all info mommy's!! :) @monatyrone2011 3hours sounds great!!
  • It depends all on your baby and body. I didn't dilate until I hit hard labor and I went from nothing to 10 and delivery in 2hrs Just got some of the muscle relaxer but that really didn't do anything for me and I never took a class and it all went well. I think it probably would be forgotten anyways because every woman is different and can take pain different.

    I did get an epi with my second it does make it easy but on the end its up to you its not bad to get it if needed because it will hurt but its all worth it after. My child I had the epi with turned out fine and be didn't had any problems just to put that out there.
  • I plan on going natural . All this info has helped a lot
