Great idea!!i_am2bz said:Whenever she gives you any trouble as she's growing up (not that that will EVER happen), you can always remind her what you went thru to bring her into the world!
Congrats!! She is a beautiful child and I'm glad you are both safe & recovered!

Congratulations!!!
Take heart you are not alone! I planned a natural home birth, but it certainly did not go down like that. Let's just say that I was only about halfway into what turned out to be 50 + hours of active labor when I gave in to some pain relief. Well, in my case I needed IV fluids and when they offered the pain relief they didn't have to convince me.
We also ended in C-section . . . something I had not even considered as an option . . . because after almost 2 hrs of pushing, the dr. said baby's head was bumping against a bone in my pelvis.
While I had hoped to birth low-tech, I was really glad that there were professionals there when I needed them.
