hi
For everyone who had their FIRST baby, if you had planned to stay home as long as possible before going in......did you really stick to this plan?
Considering you have no idea of how u will react for your first and also that unknown without baby monitoring - is everything ok with baby, is this normal and also for more pain relief.....
My plan is to stay at home as long as possible before going into midwife unit for water birth. I'm thinking of ordering a tens machine to use whilst I'm at home but wondering how realistic it is to think that I will stay at home long enough to use it? Considering it's first birth you see?
I'm a low risk birth and only 5 mins from hospital.
Would love to hear how other mums dealt with their first birth BEFORE going into hospital.
Cheers.
