After my son was born I had a PPH and needed a blood transfusion. My original midwife didn't see this as a problem and I was planning to give birth in a small birth unit, which I was really looking forward to. Since moving house and getting a new midwife, I am being referred for consultant led care due to the PPH!
I don't want a birth like last time, on the bed, stirrups, ventouse etc. I want to be more mobile, I've got a hypnobirthing CD which I will start at 32 weeks, I want things to be more natural this time round. Is it possible to do these things while under consultant led care? I haven't met my consultant yet so haven't had chance to find anything out. Also, what else could I do to make it less of a "hospital birth" if that makes sense? Thanks x
