What was your water birth experience?

I was considering a water birth, but I'm worried about all the stuff that may come out of you during birth and labor just floating around in the water with you. Anyone who has done a water birth, what are your experiences? Did you find it gross in the moment or did you not care?

I had a water birth and it was incredible. The water was so relaxing and soothing I managed to it without any pain relief. It was honestly an Incredible experience and if like me you find a hot bath soothing for pain than it really help you! The midwives actively clean the water so they get out any yucky stuff that might be in there and they top it up regularly with warm water. And honestly I could of been in a pool with hundreds of things floating in it and I wouldnt of noticed. Plus TMI my husband said I pooped loads 😂

I had the most amazing natural water birth, I'd defo recomend it! I didnt poop but I was told that if I'd did they would get rid of it quickly and descretely. It's amazing for pain relief and it was such a lovely experience bringing my baby up out of the water myself and birthing her without the assistance of midwife (she was in the room but not hands on)

First birth I ever witnessed was a water birth. Momma pooped and midwife scooped it out like it was nothing. It’s a natural thing that happens and nobody even bat an eye 💕

I don’t think any kind of birth can be gross. Birth is beautiful anyway you decide to do it.
