Thinking slightly ahead! Baby due in July. Neither of our families live nearby and are not within distances to even come at the start of labour.
DS will be around 20 months and has spent very little time apart from me, but is very sociable and tends to be fine with other people.
But what do we do about childcare when I go into labour?! Our friends all have young children and/or full time jobs, so we can't just Spring DS on them in (what will probably be!) the dead of night!
Is our only option a home birth?! Or me labouring alone?
What have others done??
