Hey gals
I'm leaning heavily towards having as natural a birth as i can. (never having done this before, I'm not entirely sure what I'm in for) However, it seems that all the research I do, and the books I've looked at, it's like you just can't have a natural birth at a hospital in the US. The way everyone talks, it sounds like the hospital is run by Satan and staffed by his minions. It can't be that bad can it??
I have no desire whatsoever to do this at home. I want to be in a hospital, just in case. But i don't want procedures shoved down my throat either. Is that even possible?? I can't understand why all the natural leaning folks are SOOOO against going to a hospital. It's starting to scare the crap out of me. Has anyone done this successfully in the US? is it just the extremeist that post negative things and write the books??
