I have alot of issues with being in hospital generally, and have decided that the best thing for me would be to have a homebirth.
I have had one vaginal birth and two c-sections.
After my previous c-section, I was told by community midwives that they would definately not attend any future homebirth because I have had two c-sections.
I have had a look at "unassisted birth" websites, I don't think this is what I want. They are all a bit 'hippy chick'for me.
I have already got off to a bad start, with one midwife actually shouting at me, that I would have to have an elective. At that point I marched out.
I am definately sure I want to have a homebirth. I really think there is no other option for me and this baby.
Any advice from those that have domne it?
How do you go about arranging it?
Do you have to inform the obstetrician and the hospital midwives?
What do I need?
