Whilst bored, thought of songs that would be quite apt whilst in labour. So far i have :
Orinoco flow- Enya (for whan waters go)
Every Breath you take- Police
Shout!- Tears for fears
Don't forget to breathe - Darius
Push it - salt'n'pepa (obviously this is for near the end).
Baby love - The supremes

any more?

(obviously not very serious- failed miserably with music twice so far- remember hollering 'turn that bloody crap off' at the radio during labour number 1- it was Wham! Last Christmas )

Breathe & Stop - Q Tip
Push the Button - Sugababes (for midwife!)
The Drugs Don't Work - The Verve
I Want to Break Free - Queen
I'm Coming Out - Diana Ross
Under Pressure - Queen

This is fun!

I'll try and think of some more!

A playlist for an indie mama

Pulp - Babies
Pearl Jam - Just Breathe
The Ronnettes - Be My Baby
The Ramones - Take The Pain Away
Courtney Love - All The Drugs in the World

And one in very poor taste indeed, apologies...
Mick Jagger - Don't Tear Me Up

I love the idea of I'm coming out... can just imagine a disco ball in the delivery suite ....

Can't think of any right now but at the above!

I've given birth to Byrd's Masses for Four and Five Voiuces three times because it's beautiful. And each time I turn around to DH and slur "I forgot you can't hear it through the G and A!"

LittleSilver, thanks for your recommendations. They are so beautiful!! Will order them. [swoon]
