Hey ladies!
I just got my bfp yesterday and am still in shock! But my hubby and I already decided we wanted to do a home birth this time around so I'm trying to figure out when I need to start interviewing midwives. The midwife I used with my daughter was at a hospital and I love her but she doesn't do home births. So I was thinking I'd call her on Monday and get an appt just to confirm the pregnancy and then ask her for referrals for a home birth midwife then start calling them. Is it too early to start doing interviews? I figure it's not because I need prenatal care but I just don't know exactly how it works. I'd appreciate any input from ladies from the Unites States who have had or are planning a home birth!
Also, to be honest, I'm still freaked out that something bad is going to happen. I'm only 11 dpo today and got my bfp at 10 dpo. I am also still breastfeeding and plan to continue as long as my 20 month old wants to. I took another internet cheapy and frer today and the frer is definitely darker but the IC test isn't at all which has me a bit worried (though the IC's are expired).
I guess it just all seems so weird to me that I'm actually pregnant again and I'm not sure where to go from here.
Thanks in advance for any advice ladies!
