I have always enjoyed lurking on bnb, i dont post a lot but i do enjoy reading everyones posts either in the pregnancy forums or baby forum etc. Im not pregnant or TTC at the minute (although id love another now!!) but my little boy is almost 1 and i always found this site useful for information.
Other the past few weeks ive come across some nasty posts, people scaremongering and not offering anythings helpful or constructive and most of all unsupportive!! It seems anyone wanting a homebirth is selfish and putting their baby at risk and when you lot come to peoples aid all you do is get moaned at, told your lying etc even when your quoting medical text! It really does sadden me, i expect this off (my!!) friends and family who dont know any better but not off so called informed women who are sharing the same experience you are!
I just want to say that the way you lot (home n natural bnb'ers) are supportive of each other and the other ladies on the board even asking for others input into threads where people are not getting the response/advice they need is fantastic. You are not hippies saying we should all avoid pain relief and give birth while chanting etc as many on the board think (makes me giggle!!) you are just ladies who have researched the birth process and have faith in your bodies and believe there is an alternative to the screaming depicted on telly etc. Some of you have even come here after disappointment in your own birth experiences determined that next time will be different, you most of all are in an ideal postion to comment and help others.
I feel much happier with you lot! you dont judge and are supportive and i just want to say you should all be proud of yourselves especially jenniflower after having a traumatic birth experience that you are still able to advise on natural birthing just shows how strong you are.
Pointless post really but i think i will be lurking here more from now on
