Embracing Pain and Letting Go of Fear in Childbirth - For some reason I have been much more anxious about my upcoming labor than I was before my labor with Esther. This is strange to me, because with Esther labor was an unknown, but now I have the experience of one relatively easy natural birth. These are good points that I want to keep in mind.
Three exercises for a STRONG birth - Hopefully you have been doing these exercises for a while and don't just start a week before you are due. If you are pregnant, start doing these now!
Make your own natural labor and birth kit- I liked the suggestions on what to bring to the hospital- for some reason I have already forgotten what I found helpful to have at my last birth.
Labor-aid recipe - A refreshing homemade drink to keep you nourished and energized during labor.
Essential oils for labor - When Esther was born, we brought lavender to the hospital but forgot to use it (slash we didn't really have time!). This is a very exhaustive list of oils; I'll probably try to narrow it down to 2-4 oils to use. If I remember this time :)
