We still don't know whats going on with our house after the earthquake and are still waiting for the insurance assessors to come round and decide whether it will be repaired or balled and rebuilt.
But the likelihood is that in about 10 weeks our house will either be rubble or be stripped down to its frame waiting for new external cladding and new internal gib, plaster and paint.
I have no idea how I'm going to bring a newborn home to that, let alone give birth in the middle of it
We have been offered a housebus to live on while its being done which is awesome, but I'm now sure it has the facilities to support a birthpool!
Sorry, just a pointless self pitying post
Anyone had a natural waterbirth in hospital rather than at home?
Did you stay at home for as long as possible?
At what stage did you go to hospital, how far apart were the contractions?
Did you end up in hospital for ages or just through transition/pushing?
Thanks
