I am pregnant with my first child, and am considering a natural birth. what role will my husband play, and is this a good fit for me?

Do some checking: The term "natural" is relative.Home in bed/hospital without pain meds/ dr assisted/midwife assisted/daddy does it all from a utube video training etc.Call around & set up some consultations with midwives & doctors & discuss what you are comfortable with. Your husband should be incorporated in the process so he can voice his interests too.
