Water-Birth

Its been 18 years since my last child, which I gave birth to natural (8lbs. 15oz.). I have heard good things about water birth and want to give it a try this time. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Thank you :-)

Personally I'm not interested in water birth, home delivery or delivery without the drugs lol. But, I am in support of women braver than me!
I hear having a midwife and/or a doula and giving birth either at home or a birthing center as opposed to having an obgyn and going to the hospital is the best way to have your ideal birth plan followed.
Good luck to you brave momma.
