Hello, ladies!! It's been a while since I posted here, but I've kind of been lurking around.
My reason for not posting frequently is kind of silly; my hospital does not allow water births, and that was what I was REALLY hoping for! They, do, however, allow laboring in the tub/shower, and so I'm totally going that route.
However, I'm back around and will continue to lurk and read all of your great advice and birth stories!
Re: It's been a while! (NBR really)
Hi!
My hospital is the same way. It's disappointing, but honestly it was the labor I needed it for not the actually pushing part. For me and a lot of women on here pushing is a relief. So while it would have been awesome to deliver my baby in water I didn't need it from a pain relief stand-point. Hope it's the same for you!
