Am currently 24+4 with DC2 and this time round am trying to cover all my options to really plan what I do and don't want.
Just trying to work out if a homebirth would be a viable option for me. I know it's early days but I just want to have things clear in my head.
With DD I was induced at 40+12 and she was born after an 11 1/2 hour labour with episiotomy and ventouse. She was 9lb 3 1/2oz and is now a lively 3.2yo :)
First things first, would I be allowed a homebirth?
And secondly, what do you do about your neighbours? I think I was quite vocal whilst in labour with DD and I don't want to embarrass myself! I live in a first floor flat in a victorian house conversion and the walls and floors are like paper. I can even hear my neighbours coughing! I have neighbours above and below me. Above is a single girl and below is a couple with a DD who will be 2 by the time my EDD comes.
I haven't got my heart set on it at all, just scouting for options so any opinions welcome :)
