"Now that I&amp;#x27;m officially eight months pregnant (and getting huge!), everyone and their mom has been asking me the same question...&amp;quot;What kind of birth are you going to have?&amp;quot; When we&amp;#x27;re out to dinner or playing games with friends, the question always comes up. At brunch, people ask it. At movies, people ask it. At parties, people ask it. Even my guy friends have pretty much all asked me. It&amp;#x27;s like the biggest question around these days! :) Births come with lots of surprises, but at this point, I&amp;#x27;m planning to labor on my own for as long as possible and then get an epidural (I&amp;#x27;m a big wuss with pain), especially since my doctor says that it won&amp;#x27;t hurt the baby at all. My friend called that a &amp;quot;classic birth&amp;quot; the other day, which I loved -- it makes it sound kind kind of elegant, like a crisp white shirt or trench coat. :) But a few other friends (even guys!) have had surprisingly strong opinions about my having a natural birth, water birth or home birth instead. Oh, well, to each her (or his) own! What about you, my darlings? Do you think you&amp;#x27;d want a natural birth? A home birth? An epidural? An elective C-section? If you&amp;#x27;ve already had a baby, how did it go? I&amp;#x27;d love to hear your thoughts! P.S. More about birth: * Mylamour.com/contest&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Glamour sweepstakes!
