Good luck with getting your home birth, I totally understand your anxiety about leaving your LO, especially someone you didn't know well. Luckily my mum can take care of my daughter, or I'd be doing it without DH too. x

i hope you can stay at home through all stages hun, im kind of in the same position but opting for a hospital birth, my dad is a teacher so couldnt say if he could look after my son, my grandma is disabled so couldnt watch him so its up to my OHs grandparents if they can or my friends if they arnt at work! fingers crossed it all happens through the night while he's fast on and iv had the baby before he wakes so he dosnt notice the change or that someone is sat downstairs and mummy isnt! x
