Water birthing?

Has anyone had a normal birth with one child and water birth with another? Which was easier? Pros/cons? Im considering a water birth (first baby) coz I wanna go kinda natural..no epi if I can and only gas if I need it. Does the water really help?

I only know two people who water birthed but its their only child so cant compare. Really wanna hear others opinions especially if u have tried both ways

I am pregnant with my first and i am doing a water birth. I found a midwifery in my town that specializes in water births. I'm so excited! Watch The Business of Being Born. That helped me make my decision. Plus i researched local places till i found the perfect one for me and my husband. Good luck!!

My sister had a normal birth and a water birth. She highly recommend water birth. She said it is more calming and soothing and during natural it was extremely chaotic!
