homebirth?

[angels330]

Hi there

I know its a bit early but i wanted to see where i stand in terms of a home birth.
In your experiences would i be allowed a home birth? I had a few complications with my first pregnancy and was classed as high rish. Delivery was normal but i was attached to numerous drips etc, they also needed to put a monitor straight oin babys head for dropping heart rate. I would love to have a home birth but not sure if i would able to? xx

It's never to early to start planning a home birth. the first thing I would say is to remove the word "allowed" from your vocabulary. You are in charge so if you want a home birth you can have one. You don't need anyone's permission, it's totally up to you.

Absolutely stand your ground if it's what you want to do. Never feel like you are going to have a fight on your hands though. You can choose to listen to them or not, but ultimately you can just say "thanks for your input, but I am still going to home birth."
