Switching birthing facility at 36 weeks...

MamaMuslima01

Please tell give me your opinions on this!!! I am a mommy who wants an all natural child birth as well as life style for my son. I will not have any immunizations for him and just want to be supported in this decision I have made for my family. The midwifery isn't giving me the support I need so I found a private practicing midwifery who understands me. I want this first time experience to be one to remember (for the good) and to happen the way God intended..  So I have an apt tomorrow to change facilities and I believe it is the best choice for me and my son..

If you believe this is the best decision for you and your son, then other's opinions shouldn't matter one bit. But if you really wanna hear mine, I don't agree with you. For someone who had complications with her first pregnancy, I was extremely thankful for the medical interventions provided by my doctors. I don't see my c-section or spinal tap as an "unnatural" child birth, a baby still came out of my womb and the method in which she came saved her life. What it comes down to is what you think is best and what you want. Some stranger on the internet shouldn't influence that. Good luck to you and your new facility!

Agreed. You can WANT something to go a certain way as much as you want, but babies have a mind of their own and we have no control over that. I think it's perfectly fine to want an all natural birth, etc etc, and if that works out for you, great! But, don't hold onto that desire so strongly that you put yourself and/or your little one in danger. I don't see any problem switching to a midwifery that has the same beliefs as you do, I'm quite sure lots of people have done it and will continue to do so. It's important to feel safe and understood wherever you are because you want your experience to be as pleasant as possible.
