Do you think is a good idea to dance the song "CHERISH" by Kool & the Gang while in labor?

Question

I'm Jamie, an American girl who lives in France and who is expecting her first child, a son who will be named Jacques. My partner and I we are planning a homebirth. We want to play music during labor and birth, for example: Faith Hill's (she resembles my "old lookalike") "There you'll be" for the moment that Jacques' head begin to crown my v****a and also Faith Hill's "Breathe" for the moment near the pushing stage. And many other songs while in labor ( Alizee's "Moi Lolita", classical, chill out, Kylie Minogue's "Especially for you" (my partner's choice)...

But we saw a music video on TV last night that we loved. It was the old hit by Kool & the Gang "Cherish". This is a very beautiful love song and my partner had the idea that we can dance this song very slowly while I'm in labor. We practised the dance and we felt so emotional. Do you think it will be a good idea to dance this song while in labor? Please, give me an answer!!

Answer 1

If you are capable of doing it, Cant see why not. Just make sure you are and stay fit. I know i would not have been able to dance while I was in labor. I think you should tell your Hubby you will do it with him if you feel up to it while you are in Labor.  I would not be making any promises.

Good Luck on that!!! And CONGRATS !!!!

Answer 2

uh... no! U shouldn't dance while your in labor! Before you water breaks and after birth sure! but while in labor! Are u crazy! The music is a good idea though.
