I prayed on it and decided to conceive my child naturally. Any advice on how to prepare for a natural birth?

You can plan and arrange all you want but even after you have a few kids you will never be prepared for everything. I think the most important thing is to go with the flow. Stressing about pillows or special music doesn't help all it does is make everyone cranky and that stress makes everything worse. A duela though is nice to have as they can help take the pressure off of you and whom ever you chose to at the delivery with you. I prefer just my husband where as my sister had almost 10 people with her. Do what makes you calm and the rest will just happen. It's not as bad as they make it sound and there are things out there that are so much more painful.

Thanks for the comment. That makes me feel so much better. I really hadnt stressed over getting "pregnancy items." But as far as the birth goes, i believe my husband may be the only ones in there. I'm praying over my moma and mother in law. They get maybes.

As nice as it may seem to have people around I personally wanted our births to be just me and hubby. It was one of those special moments we just didn't want to share and the magic that happens when you see your husband become a Dad (every time) is something you do not want to miss because someone else was there talking to you... well for me anyway.
