Three years ago I had a really good, straightforward water birth with DS, but passed the placenta quite fast then bled heavily. Passed out in the pool, needed emergency surgery, transfusions etc. I'm 11wks pg and already quite scared of a) not being allowed to labour in the pool, but more so that b) I could bleed badly again. I know second labours tend to be faster, but first wasn't exactly long! What if I don't get to hospital in time??
Can anyone reassure me that they had a normal birth after a previous PPH? I know it's early days, but I'm already getting quite nervous. Thanks in advance!
