Have fun while you're in labour!<br /><br />And thanks jenmum for your comment, I agree, the less stress the better. Have heard a glass of wine is good for early labour but I didn't try it myself! Next time I'll get the champers on ice and have a water birth with any luck!Meandering Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00139553483554627886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337290374778569766.post-38076857198112102912010-07-14T11:29:28.569-07:002010-07-14T11:29:28.569-07:00"Ina May is the midwife who has documented or..."Ina May is the midwife who has documented orgasmic childbirth and if you can pop one out while you're giving birth I'm delighted for you"<br /><br />Ha!

If you think negatively you'll probably have the awful time you expected, think positive and hey - you might be right! Toughest point in my labour for me was being at home when my contractions weren't strong enough to 'qualify' for more assistance. It was early days, not quite what I'd expected (he was back to back) but I was stressed, scared and in pain. Had the great advice of taking a nap which worked for me and although the later labour was tough in many ways I'd stopped stressing out which helped me physically, mentally and emotionally. Anyway, enough rambling, sorry!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
