Not giving birth for a while yet but had ds in hosp (really wanted him at home but dh v against it so had him in hosp) This time there is no way i want to do it agian in hosp (unless emergency obv) and there is a birthing centre about 15 mins away which im now under but still not sure about this.
Its a very quiet one, only has 300 births average a year. Thing is ds only 2 and i dont really have anyone that i know could drop everything (friends and family nearby all have school age children) so i dont want to be going into labour worrying about where ds will go.
People keep trying to put me off a home birth saying its tooo dangerous and that i should put the babys safety first not my preferences. Im getting the 'what if you need emergency caserean etc' the nearest hosp is 1/2 hour away. I know i have a while to decide but still worrying all the same
