giving birth alone

[jerrydog]

Partly through choice and partly through necessity I will be giving birth alone. just wondered if anyone else has experienced this. I was planning to get a taxi but I don't know if this a good idea might stress me and poor taxi driver out as it's a 12 mile drive. Any response appreciated

Do you mean completely alone or with a midwife in hospital but without a partner/friend with you?

12 miles isn't necessarily a very long car journey depending on where the 12 miles take you.
