Firstly, congratulations!

Your body was made to birth your babies. Full stop. Trust it. What stopped you last time was the interventions and you know that, so you are on the right track.

Your choice of care provider is the most crucial factor in whether you will birth naturally. An independent midwife will give you the best chance.

The right support in labour also plays a vital role. Having a doula/midwife or both who will help you through the tough times makes an amazing difference.

I had every intervention under the sun when my first child was born. I can look back now and see clearly that had I had a doula or midwife supporting me, I would not hve made the same decisions and my birth would have proceeded very differently.
