3rd degree tear…what to do now?

I had a 3rd degree tear with 6 litres of blood loss with my first. I have fully recovered. I’m pregnant with my second and terrified to give birth at my nearest hospital as the care has been atrocious. My neighbour knows someone who died last month giving birth there. I’m being told NOT to have a home birth but I’m sh** scared to give birth at this hospital. Anyone had a third degree tear then had a home birth?

Positive back-to-back (occipito-posterior) stories

Ladies, I need to hear your positive stories please. Today is my due date and I've just had a scan and been told that baby is in a back-to-back position.

I have tried to look for positive birth stories but all I can find are horror ones about how bad the pain is!

My first baby was a lengthy 5 day induction followed by sepsis and an emergency section which took my body so long to recover from.

I feel a bit wounded that I don't think I will have a positive story to reflect back on.

I have been scheduled for a c section on Monday if baby isn't already here, but I'm now considering pulling it forward.

Please let me know your thoughts 💕
