I'm Currently Feeling:  | Home births
Anyone planning to have a home birth or have you had a home birth?
I am due my 2nd kid in Feb and i really want a home birth this time as i hated the way i was treated in hospital with Ewan. I will get better care from my hubby at home and i will be much more relaxed i think.
Did you find it hard getting a home birth? i had slightly raised BP last time, so got transfered from the maternity unit to hospital and it was horrid!
Would have been treated better at the vets where i used to work!! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I wanted a homebirth for this pregnancy, but as it's my first OH wants me strapped down to a hospital bed. Me and all of my 4 siblings were born at home. In the bath  or in the garden haha. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I was considering it - but now that I most likely will have to have a c-section that is out. Good luck though!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Im not having one. This is my first baby and I have no idea how everything is going to go, and im not willing to risk my, or my baby's life for that.
Plus I like the fact that at the hospital I will get looked after and all the cleaning up etc will be done. I could not imagine having to clean up a birth mess in my home. |
