I understand that most ladies prefer to dodge the bullet on that one, but to actually experience it ... it's quite indescribable. <br /><br />Lauren ... you'd better write a detailed story of your birth and let me post it on here!magunnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775291869529119944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2436075389293044686.post-60547093069913011132012-01-10T21:50:21.327-08:002012-01-10T21:50:21.327-08:00Great info and advice Allie!

I agree with it all, especially...I love this list. I agree with it all, especially the breathing part. That was the hardest thing for me--I kept starting to hyperventilate, and because of that, Kent was super helpful with simply telling me to slow down and breathe! And that's all I needed--just someone to tell me to slow down those breaths. <br /><br />And with the last point--now that I know how great it is to recover from a drug-free birth, I'm going to avoid an epidural when I have the next ones. It's SO wonderful to just have the baby and be done!<br /><br />I remember after Ellie was born I just kept saying "I did it. I can't believe that I just did that!" It was incredible, and ever since that moment I feel like a more powerful version of myself.Becca and Kenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10441910930489093552noreply@blogger.com
