So, I mention below that I had a Doula, Tanya Biesinger, that helped me with my birth. You can read more about natural birth and what Doulas do on this website - www.dona.org. I am very very happy with Max's birth and I owe that to Tanya! Even though I didnt have a totally unmedicated birth (i did love the Fetinyl after being in labor so long! lol) I liked being in charge of everything that was happening, being able to move around, and staying home for most of my labor.
Anyway- that is my commercial for natural birth! Its amazing!
