I'm interested in how the medical staff treated your second labour if you had a PPH first time round.
I had a minor PPH with DC1 (600ml estimated) and this time they want me to give birth in hospital and have a cannula in my hand from the start 'just in case'.
I would really like to have a home birth if possible (and definitely not have a cannula in) and have been reading up as much as possible about the risks, and the hospital's proposed course of action seems very over cautious to me, especially as I only live about 1 mile from the hospital.
Any useful thoughts/knowledge/experience? TIA
