Oooo, I like it!

Its too true that something that is so natural is viewed as something that always needs medical management and intervention to progress properly. All too often I am scoffed for wanting a home birth (oh, no, too dangerous, and no pain relief), and a waterbirth (ewww, messy, do you really want to be sitting in all that? And what? No pain relief?), and a natural birth with no medication (pfffft, you're fooling yourself, you're naive, i give you an hour, and you'll be begging for it...).

I just answer... "I have faith in the power of my body, this is what I'm designed to do".

And just ignore the "ewww" comment to the waterbirth thing too.

Thanks for posting that... mind if I print it!
