Diff childbirth methods
 

I'm glad that I'm in a generation where I could choose any method I see fit. Looks like I'd prefer a waterbirth next time, but not that sure yet. Need to get pregnant first!!!!

Here are some of the different childbirth methods:

Home Birth
Natural Childbirth
Medicated Childbirth
Caesarean Section
Waterbirth
HypnoBirthing
Non-Recument Birthing Position

WOW!!! I didn't realize there's that much options already!!! I will take note on this and research on it

I agree! I thought there's just two, LOL. Looks like the most challenging is the non-recumbent position.

Home birth is ideal if your previous pregnancies were vaginal birth. Although I find this one a little scary because what if there are childbirth complications? The lack of the facilities at home poses more danger to the mum and the baby.

I'll be having a C-section for sure coz I've got gestational diabetes

Hey Gaetana, thanks for that. But would you mind sharing what Non-Recument Birthing Position is?

Re: Diff childbirth methods
 

Yeah, I wonder what that is too... Something new I think?

I had a normal delivery but I am curious about the water one... Anybody here who has tried it?

Re: Diff childbirth methods
 

I think it's just a typo of Non-Recumbent birth position. I heard it's like squatting. Never knew anyone who has tried it though.

It's giving birth in a tub of water. Some say water birth is less painful. Others also agree that this is the most relaxing way of giving birth.
