.... Im gonna sound really STUPID here, but here goes.

If I have a home birth this time round, as my MW wants me to, what happens in the following situations....

  1. Baby isnt breathing - when Jessica was born she had to be resucitated (sp?) and was away from me for about 5 mins...... what happens at home?!

  2. Although I didnt tear last time, what happens if i need stitches? Does the midwife do it or what?!

    Sorry.... im a complete mess about the whole thing, but my MW reckons I will progress really quickly and have the baby at home..... AHHHHHHH
