You can watch water births on YouTube. I think that once you have one you'll never want to have birth any other way. It's best on your body, especially for healing up later.
I had just read this story, and this lady bought a birthing pool, and had her husband deliver the baby, and they had a doctor come and check her out later to make sure everything was 100% fine, and the doctor said he couldn't even tell she had just had a baby! Due to the water relaxes the muscles and skin so well.
And she healed faster.
I don't know that there is any in my state, that story was from california too. But it did say there was a book you could order about it, and how to do it. I'm really tempted...
I have always wanted to, and planned on it. I am from California, and there are places that there that you can have a midwife at your house to do a water birth, or you can go to a birthing center for water births. But, I have moved to Missouri, and here there are very few midwives, like 6 in the whole state I think. I searched within 200 miles and no birthing centeres with water births..... makes me sad : ( I have heard that it helps a lot with pain if you are going drug free.....
