Happy to have hospital support

I am newly pregnant, but plan to have a med-free labor/birth.  I will probably be hanging around here occasionally

I decided to go with a Certified Nurse Midwife at the hospital rather than an OB.  When I called to schedule my first appointment they took my number and had the CNM call me back personally to set the appointment and to answer any questions.

I was really nervous about having support for a med-free birth in a hospital, but after talking to the CNM, I was so relieved.  She told me she is very supportive of natural birth and a majority of the births she attends are med-free.  At my appointments she will be helping me prepare to have the right mindset for a med-free birth.  I am so happy to have this support.

 I know I have a long time to go before birth, so hopefully everything goes smoothly until then

That's great that you found a supportive provider. I think that's half the battle right there! I wish I had made a better decision my first time.  Congratulations on your pregnancy
