20 celebrity moms reveal what it was really like to give birth

“I was really looking forward to the whole rite of passage, giving birth perfectly present, unmedicated, in the way nature intended,” Pink told People in June 2011. But when do babies ever follow a plan? Pink’s daughter, Willow, was in the breech position, so the mom-to-be’s birth plan went out the hospital window. “We tried everything to turn her around. Turns out, this little girl had other plans—she is my daughter, after all.” Thankfully, the end result was a healthy mama and baby girl. “It all turned out perfectly in the end, even though it wasn’t what we intended, because she is healthy and happy and so am I.”
