We have a birth plan

As of late we have been thinking strongly of my births.

My first was in a Hospital, My second was in a hotel room with a Midwife (If you MUST know why the hotel...you can IM or e-mail me)

Now, I just feel that My Husband and I are going to go unassisted.
I know this is a touchy subject for many...even for me, since I feel so strongly about it....I feel it is the best choice for me and the best choice for My baby.

I also feel it is the best choice for my family....I Have done the research, thought this through long and hard (Yeah for a LONG time...since I was Pregnant with my second child...over two years ago now.)

I am Vary excited about my choice, yet sadly can not tell my whole family since they tend to be fear mongers (And I mean the pop off with crazy stuff to...not just the "what ifs").
I saddens my husband and I to keep this a secret but since most of them seemed offended that I chose to forgo the Epidural last time...they wouldn't take to this well.

Anyways, I just thought I would post this...since the pregnancy is such a Big part of My life at this point.

(For those who would like more information on UC www.unassistedchildbirth.com is a great place to start)

  1. They were offended that you chose to forgo the epidural? That's out of wack! It is your choice to have it or not. They are not the one's that have to go through the pain, therefore they do not know what you can handle and what you can't. They are not the ones that will be delivering this child, so it is not their choice as to where and how you decide that experience to be. Sorry, that just irritates me! By the way, I am 10 weeks, 1 day today with my 4th, so I know how you feel. Good luck!
