Hi all! I'm planning for a hopeful home birth this time round (second baby). Is anyone else looking into this? Would be great to chat about it with someone :) x

Yes! I had one with my first and loved it xz

I planned one with my first but unfortunately went into hospital in the end, I would love to try again this time round however I’m not in much of a position to unfortunately! Definitely some things to consider is how far away your nearest hospital is, if you would like a birthing pool, sometimes your midwives will have one and you supply the liners or you can rent one! If you’d like to hear my experience let me know, although mine did not go to plan it’s important to take that in to consideration too! X

I had a midwife led unit birth for my first but hoping for a home birth this time around! 🤞

Planning a homebirth too! Will be my first

3rd baby hoping for my first home birth. It was strongly recommended by the midwife as my 2nd was a quick labour

I'm also planning a homebirth and have done a lot of research. This is my first baby. There are quite limited facilities in my area for anything other than a hospital birth so feel this will be the best option for me to feel comfortable, safe & hopefully to achieve a water birth. I also live very close to the hospital if a transfer was needed. Happy to chat!
