The moment you have been working towards for nine months has arrived—the birth of your baby!
What choices did you make and options did you take when it came to the birth of your child? Did things go to "plan", or otherwise? Home or hospital? Vaginal or caesarean? Forceps or suction? Epidural or gas? Pain relief or TENS machine? Did your preferences change mid-birth, or perhaps with subsequent births too? Were others receptive to your choices?
