Delivery Room Playlist

julie+worrall

So, hubby and I were recently inspired to come up with a playlist for delivery day. #1 song: Push It by Salt N Pepper. Lol any other inspirational tunes?

It's the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine) REM. I don't listen to them but the humorous part of me had to share what popped in mind.

I made one last time (but never got to it). I was more about being cool, calm and collected. I chose a mix of songs that made me happy and calm (classical, Fun!, Jimmy Eat World, etc)

I think mine is going to be all songs I like to relax to and songs that mean something to me. Otherwise I may end up getting irritated with the music and freak out lol

I think I'm just going to stick to my old standbys. Something I'll love to consider my baby's "birth song," and one they'll hopefully like to have! Realistically, my kiddo will probably be born while the Dead or Janis Joplin plays haha. I came into this world to the tunes of Crash Test Dummies (Superman specifically). Good music, but maybe a little saddish for my taste when it comes to baby-having!

I was going to suggest this one! We're playing it when I start pushing. Lol

I'm thinking I might need multiple playlists depending on how the delivery is going. If some ridiculous music starts thumping after I've been pushing for an hour I just might lose it! Lol but I think some goofy upbeat songs would be fun if this delivery goes like my last one. Pushed through 2 contractions and she was out! Lol

When I delivered my first son, the doctor made some comment about how the epidural wouldn't numb the feeling of "the ring of fire" I would feel during delivery. And then he sang a few lines from the Johnny Cash song. Lol any JC song reminds me off his delivery now. Lol

I was thinking about this too-- I'm going to make a playlist of songs that make me feel happy, empowered and that will help me kind of tune out everything else. FTM so not exactly sure, but I want to feel as good as I can and be able to tune out some other things if I need to (I'm learning that hospital births can really have a lot of negative distractions).
