Congratulations on the baby! I made your Pumpkin Buttermilk Bundt cake with the brown butter icing and had to come back to the site to see what other yummy recipes I could find. But then I came upon this post and felt drawn to comment. I love pregnancy! I love giving birth! Pain and all. I have 2 beautiful girls that where naturally birthed via waterbirth. YOU CAN DO THIS!! This is what your body is made for. Your grandmother is spot on with visualization being a very effective tool. I found it helpful to visualize the baby moving down with each contraction. It helps you relax and not tense up during a contraction. Remaining soft throughout your body is key. Do not tense up, it will hurt more. Just let the contraction move through you. I hope this helps!! Good luck :) P.S. Reading positive natural birth stories was very helpful for me too!!

Congrats on baby #3 Carla!! It sounds like you had a beautiful birth. I’m hoping for a water birth too! :)

I am very excited for you! I just had my third baby two weeks ago and he was my first waterbirth at home…the first two were all natural at the hospital. Like you I was very excited about birth. I am a go getter and like the sense of accomplishment . I also did a half marathon and birth like the marathon it’s something you set your heart to achieve and you do it. It’s a thrill. Scary and nervous at times like the race but when it’s done wow! You feel amazing and it’s a trully unforgettable and beautiful experience. You go girl!
