I was from the outset, I wanted a drug free work have clearly, but I wasn't sure how I was going to deal with him. I read a lot about it and I found that water helps to alleviate part of the pain and also helps to relax. In the UK, you can have a water birth under the public health, so I don't need everything, only even organize. To do this that I decided to HypnoBirthing classes to take care of and I very useful found. What you learn there helps you be more prepared, what, and therefore you can be relaxed and control of the situation. I have to admit that I could stay as calm, as would I wanted but I managed to have the baby without drugs and in the water.
The experience was amazing, I can't say that there is damage, because it did not, but I know that if I have known would not what I would act at that time I got in a panic. Is the pain many helped in the water, and it was great that all the time in different positions can move. I have only an experience, so that I can not compare with birth out of the water in the water birth, but if I experienced, I stay on the bed not, could the contractions was very painful on my back and I would not could give birth in this way. As soon as I entered the warm water I felt a huge relief on my back. The midwife could investigate even me constantly, and it was the temperature of the water also control, so it's not cold get.
My baby now loves the water, I white not, if that is connected to the way, that he was born, but he seems to very relaxed feel, if he is in the bath or in the pool. And he is a very relaxed baby in General. Our midwife told us that she is convinced, that the nature and the way that comes babies on this world marked it, and I for think. Part of the development process is to be born again.
This is just my experience and I can not say that it will be for all work, a friend of mine tried, be in the water, if she experienced contractions and she hated it. Keep in mind that there is a very personal decision.
Keep in mind, breath!
