natural birth

I watched "the business of being born" and I ben reading ppl comments abt having a natutal birth. I had to get induced with my son and had a epidural with him. My water broke wit my daughter and by the time I got to the hospital I was 6cm bt I still had a epidural. Reading everyone stories is really makin me consider havin a natural birth. I'm only 11w n 5days (still early) bt Im really considering to try it out

Doulas are very helpful during labor and if you have a partner, they always try to encourage them to be apart of the comfort for you too.
I found my doula on face book...:)

The best advice I can give is to go in well prepared. Even if you had epidurals with your previous births you are better prepared than most first timers. Practice breathing, bring a focal point, whatever works best for you, and stay positive. You CAN do it!

Go for it! Also, get a doula if at all possible because they can do a lot to ease the pain/discomfort that make a lot of women unable to handle a natural birth.
