Raquel and I have decided to have a dual unassisted birth at home. We both went into labor this morning. The pain isn't too bad at first, but the contractions soon become unbearable. They start coming quicker, stronger. Raquel and I try different positions and methods to deal with labor, but nothing seems to help. We're determined to have our home births though, so we soldier through it, praying labor doesn't get even worse as it progresses. Even through the pain, we're in high spirits about our impending natural births.
