That morning I picked up my son Asier of 5 years recently turned to the cole, we stayed at the park for a good while, until he fell to the hanging of a branch and realized in the head, nothing serious, but the scare was enough for me, well into pregnancy, I would like to lie down when you get home. About 4:00 in the afternoon I noticed that I felt something different. I had already had contractions, movements, sensations... but this was different.
It was September 17, the day of my birthday, about 4 pm, I called one of my midwives, the two midwives I had been accompanied and guided it throughout my pregnancy and that helped me to arrive at that time fully empowered and safe. ¡Radiant!

I had already had a previous birth, also respected in a clinic of natural birth in water, one had been very special, but this, this felt different, I was in my home, I felt protected.
The midwives came right away, they knew that my first birth had been rapid (3 hours). My partner was at my side, my son was down to play with some friends, although half an hour, I was called in by the terrace to tell me that the boy (my son Asier) wanted to go with me, so there we were all.
Blinds to medium close, music is chosen, walks by my house, breathing in the terrace, caresses and massages my partner, conversations with my small, with exercises at the ball... in short what I dictated my body in every moment. Midwives, such as fairies in a forest, slid to measure the pulse of the baby, to check for dilation, to guide me. It was magic!!

After two and a half hours I spent as a sigh, I sat in the bathroom, the midwife said to me -. The head is already crowning, on the next contraction push. (I never felt the urge to push as some describe, with Asier either) I was guided more by the contractions, and I found it very important to be able to feel it all to be able to push with the right intensity, I felt that if I made it “very seriously” it would be too abrupt for both the baby as for me, it was the feeling that insurance rasgaría. I got in the tub that they had brought me home, and the second push, I on my knees resting on the edge, my husband accompanying Asier and I, Aïne peeked his head. With the following already
it came out in one piece, and there, in the water, excited the I tape in my arms, surrounded by family and love, muuucho love. I describe it as a delivery orgasmic, not having had one physically, but because the experience was pure pleasure. ¡Brutal!
The hours passed as I wanted to, to the rhythm that I marked up the body, and we celebrated with a cake that he had made the previous day as Aïne was born on my birthday.
My gratitude more intimate and sincere to Martha and Agate, these brave women who give part of their lives to allow that so many of us we may have the respected childbirth desired, and without judgment. You are a true gift.
With love Goretti and family.
