Thanks! This is why a plan is important, I think. You might have to be flexible on the day and wing it a bit, if you write down your preferences beforehand then you have more chance of them happening, I think... Things can be too intense/move too quickly for you to be able to make your wants clear on the actual day, and it;s not like you can just go back and re-do, ya know?

yes exactly, once those moments have passed, they´ve passed! luckily my midwife is very geared towards the more natural the better and the less intervention from her so if anything she will be more in the background and I will need to ask her for help if I need it. But I will definitley write them down in case I lose my mind a bit!

That was a beautiful story! I really enjoyed reading it. I'm sorry that afterwards things went less smooth.

What a wonderful story it gives me so much hope and strength it lets me know that I will be able to do this!

I was touched by the story too and happy that someone brought it back up from several years ago! I needed to read this as I am planning a water birth with this one and would like to read as many positive stories as I can! I know that it is probably the hormones but the story and the pictures made me very teary eyed. Thanks again for sharing!!
