Surrender to labour.
Do what you feel you need to do, it is when you are made to do things by others that you are bought back to reality and it all gets too much. Stay in your owe little world and have a warm bath, walk, rock, sit, curl up in bed, whatever you feel you need to do to work with your labour.
For inspiration in trying for an unmedicated birth, check out theis you tube video that shows newborns doing the breast crawl and explains a study that showed the best way to achieve this is to have an unmedicated birth and to have skin to skin contact for 60- 90 minutes post birth.
i had a lot of issues with the staff and circumstances during my labour, but a lot of emotional healing happened when i had bub on my tummy directly after the birth and she made her way to the nipple for her first feed, just magic.
