For all of you who have already had your babies, are pregnant, TTC or plan at any point in the future to have a family, I strongly recommend watching this video documentary!
I had my son naturally in a birthing center with a water birth, and I absolutely recommend that anyone who is not high risk do their research and consider using a midwife in a birthing center or at home.
For all of us stay-at-home and busy Mommies, this documentary is a little over an hour long, so if you may have to watch it in sections. It took me a day and a half to get completely through it, lol! Also, to be warned, this video also has some graphical parts, but absolutely every minute of this is worth every bit of information!!!

I did not look into hypnobirths, but it seemed to be a pretty popular thing. I did not have any additional factors in my birth. It was only myself and my husband with our midwife and her assistant. We felt very safe with her, so we did not feel the need to incorporate a doula or anything else into it. It was a very quick labor of 3 hours with only 20 minutes of pushing.
