I&#8217;m curious to hear from mums who delivered naturally. I&#8217;m looking for stories and advice, because I&#8217;d like to deliver naturally for my first child. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am due in about a week, first pregnancy and have been preparing for a drug-free birth! Now that I am at the end, I&#8217;m becoming a little nervous! I know I can do it but encouragement and positive birthing stories always seem to help! I have been working with a doula in my home! This has helped my husband and I tremendously, but I&#8217;m still nervous!  Any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I visited the gyno yesterday because I&#8217;ve been struggling to have painless sex for the past month (I&#8217;m recently newly married and was a virgin up until then) Well come to find out my boney structure is abnormal and extremely narrow (part of the problem why sex hurts so much for me) the doctor told me there is a good chance I won&#8217;t be able to have natural birth due to the shape of my boney structure. I&#8217;ve always wanted children and have always wanted to give natural birth. Now that I may have to have c-sections when in the future my husband and I decide to start having kids, are they really that bad? I&#8217;ve heard such horrow stories.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have read so many different books, magazines, etc. that I am just looking to hear actual women&#8217;s stories.  I plan to have a natural birth but I&#8217;m open to whatever may happen on that day.  I was wondering how long it actually took you ladies to recover after giving birth.  And by recover I mean &#8211; you felt like yourself again (well as close as you could get).<br />
1) How long before you could have sex comfortably again?<br />
2) How long before you felt like your vagina was &#8220;back to normal.&#8221;<br />
3) How long did it take for you to loose the baby weight?<br />
4) Did you have a natural birth or did you use pain medication?<br />
Thank you in advance for sharing your stories with me.</p>
