I'm 17 weeks with baby number 2 and saw midwife today. She was really pushing for me to have a home birth as DS1 came really quickly (about 11 hours even though he got stuck and needed ventouse) and she thinks I'd be at risk of giving birth in a lay-by!
Has anyone else had a midwife being really really pro home birth? Not sure if she genuinely thinks it's the right thing for me personally or if it's just that home births are what midwives think are the best thing generally.
