Hello, so glad to see a post on this! This is my first pregnancy, and I really want a natural, at home birth with a midwife... it seems I'm really in the minority! so it will be great to talk with others who want the same thing. I'm 31, and in Arizona.

Hi, I'm Mia a stay at home mom of a 1 year old boy. I did natural birth with him and wore him for a long time, but now have trouble considering he's a big 30lbs and has been the last few months. I still breast feed and I co-sleep with him as well. I want to learn more about natural parenting, as I'm very new to it and kind of fell into it by doing what just felt right! -

Hi! I am trying to convieve baby #2. I have PCOS and for my first baby, I concieved using Clomid and got pregnant on the second try. I am apprensive about using it again and want to go natural. The problem is I am not aware of the efficiacy rates of natural remedies as they have not to my knowledge been studied. My chiro recommended a Standard Process Vitamin and natural hormone stimulation therapy to help me ovulate and then concieve. DOes anyone have any experience with this having had PCOS? Poly Cystic Ovaries?

This is a great group to find other moms who have had or will have a homebirth. Welcome!

What kind of natural experience are you looking to have? Will you be in hospital or home birth?
