Iona, it is disappointing that your doctor doesn't seem to be following your desires. Have you been able to review your Birth Plan with the maternity ward at your hospital? If you can, you might want to discuss the plan with your nurses since they will be with you during your delivery and can advocate for you. Your husband can also help you voice your concerns, but remember that the important thing is that your babies are delivered healthy. If you need pain medication or other interventions, please don't be too disappointed or blame yourself.

I had my first child in Italy in a public hospital that had the philosophy of natural childbirth. I spent my labor in water, and I delivered him on the floor in the squatting position. No epitural, no IV, no inducing drugs, episiotomy...it was the best experience of my life. Now I'm pregnant with twins and this automaticly is considered to be a risky pregnancy. I would like to have a natural childbirth in a hospital where this term in not fully understand...today I went to see my ob-gyn who knew about my aspirations and while she was doing a check, without telling me started to strech my membranes (i'm very close to my due date). It was so painful and disapointing that I came home in tears. I cannot change the hospital because my husband is a pediatrician there. I have my birthplan written and I feel that I have to fight for my right to be part of my babies birth instead of just lying in a hospital bed without feeling my body and accept the instructions to push...

I had my first child in 2007 and all along had no plan of having a natural labour but didn't want to use drugs until necessary. I was thrilled when I had a totally natural labour with no drugs and no stitches. Listening to your body can actually be the key to a natural labour - and you've still got your wits about you when the crowds turn up to see the baby!
