[quote=Anonymous]A doula was HUGE in helping me achieve this. It's an expense but very much worth it. For me, it was my first child, so I didn't know what to expect. At least you know what to expect to an extent -- I think that will help, especially if you don't have a doula. My advice is to spend time in a tub if you have one in your birthing suite. I was at Shady Grove and had one there -- it was FABULOUS. I didn't want to get out but knew I had to. I've also heard to eat as much as you can before going to the hospital, but I'd recommend not too much and not too far into the labor. I shoved a tortilla with cheese into my mouth as we were rushing out the door, and it all came back up right when we got to the hospital. :)[/quote]
