I'm keen to have a home birth for DC2 after a pretty straightforward birth with DS1. The community midwife is popping over to chat it through on Friday and I wondered what key questions I should be asking? I would like to get a pool to use as this is one of my reasons for considering a home birth as our hospital only has one pool and is currently refurbishing the whole maternity unit in stages so I have no idea if it will be available when my time comes! Plus I'm sure my labour slowed down when I transferred into hospital last time as I was quite nervous about going in and worried I would be sent home so think it will be much more relaxed at home!
So...ladies who've been there before...what are the key things to ask/consider about a home birth? Thanks in advance!
