I have five children- 2 I had c sections with, and 3 I had at home. My last home birth, I gave birth to a 11 lb 9 oz son!

apparently not many. I asked a question about natural births on here and got nothing but people thinking I was crazy. I plan on having one

both my girls were delivered naturally.

With my first pregnancy, the dr. decided to induce my labor because we weren't sure if my water had broken and I was past my due date. So I did get to have one shot of demerol. Thank goodness because soon I heard a usually calm dr. exclaim, "Come and help her push this baby out!" The workers actually pushed on my abdomen and a 10 pound 4 ounce beautiful baby girl was delivered vaginally. Since it was my first, I had no idea of what it should feel like. I tell her that is the hardest thing I have ever had to go through with her. She is a wonderful child and will be 20 years old next week. With the second child, the nurses told me to walk around the corridors. When I returned and asked for pain med they told me I was too far along and couldn't receive med. She weighed (only) 8 pounds 10 ounces, but was caught on my cervix. So that was a very painful experience as the doctor had to reach inside and help her out and I had no pain med. She also was definitely worth the extra effort and pain after 15 years.

I had my little girl natural. screw having an epidual,lol and im pregnant again due in 11 weeks, so hoping that will go all good again!
