I'd like some waterbirth stories/advice :O)

[sungreen13]

I've had 3 wonderful pregnancies/deliveries- all natural, with midwives in hospitals. With baby #4 I really would love a waterbirth at a nearby birthing center. (It looks amazing! Baby Love in Cape Coral). Hard part is getting dh on board though. I want to show him some videos and more on waterbirths, but was thinking some mama's here would have the best advice. . . . . . ?

Can't give you a real life story- but my good friend just sent me this link- she's expecting too!

I gave birth to my daughter in the water, but it was at home.  I don't have any pictures of the birth itself, but do have some right after she was born.  The details of the birth are posted in my journal.

If you want videos, then there are a bunch on YouTube.  You can try adding Hypnobirthing/Hypnobabies to your search.  I found a lot of videos that way.  If I find any I will send them your way.

On Facebook, there are a bunch of great pages that post videos periodically.  The Peaceful Birth Project is a good one.
