Hi everyone,
Unfortunately i was told over the weekend that i won't be able to have the homebirth that i was hoping for. I was quite upset at first, :cry: but maybe it's for the best???. I have had a few issues with my BP during the pregnancy and have ended up in the Day Assessment Unit 4 times (the last time being last week). My midwife says that i probably would have ended up being transferred to the hospital anyway. With only 5 days to go i now have lots to think about!

Anyway, i just want to wish all you homebirthers the best of luck and i hope you all have the kind of births you were hoping for.
Good luck all!

Baby Isaac William arrived at 12.43 this afternoon. Back labour throughout (though he remained LOA) so not quite the 'comfortable' birth I'd hoped for, but we got through it pretty quickly. :) He's a little little boy at just 5lb2, but is strong and healthy - we're both doing great. I'm just flippin exhausted! Will try to come back tomorrow and tell you a bit more. Thanks for all the positive vibes on this thread that helped me approach labour in a great frame of mind.

Oh, just wanted to say that expulsive reflex is soooo powerful. I didn't do any intentional pushing, just breathed him down and let my body do it's thing. And he came out all at once - just lucky I was kneeling on the bed, not the floor. :haha:

I'm a mummy! :)

Oh wow a huge congratulations, this is lovely news :hugs: x
