Your support team is so pivotal aren't they? First labour I had a couple of unsupportive midwives. Rolling their eyes, wanting to hurry things along. I was glad to have my OB on my side telling the midwives what I wanted. And i am fortunate enough to be able to speak my mind.
Second time around I made sure I told them very clearly I wanted an intervention free birth and they assigned two gorgeous supportive midwives.

Fingers crossed I manage to get good midwives this time.
