After my second birth, I told my husband as soon as my daughter was in my arms "I wanna do that again!" I was on a natural birth HIGH! It was such an incredible difference from my very difficult first birth.
I want as many mamas as possible to feel that amazing after they give birth-- knowing that they had the perfect birth from them.
The decision to "go natural" takes courage, commitment, (and flexibility if some interventions are truly medically necessary) but it is 100% possible.
Here are some keys to success:
1. Commitment is key! Embrace the journey wholeheartedly and stay open to the twists and turns along the way. Your determination will fuel your resilience when challenges arise.
2. Prepare your body, mind and spirit like a champ! Just as you wouldn’t tackle a marathon without training, birth requires readiness.
3. Consider a birth doula! Doulas aren’t just a nice to have; they are actually evidence-based and improve birth outcomes. From prenatal preparation to postpartum care, she’s can make all the difference when the going gets tough during labor.
