Statistically it’s the safest place com what I read. Everyone I know has loved a home birth if it’s been possible!

Congratulations on your 3rd baby!

Go for it if you are able! This is my 4th id love one too. It there are few factors that could make it trickier for me but if I was low risk I’d be jumping at the chance!

Loved mine, one of the best experiences of my life. I wasn’t classed as ‘low risk’ but then very few people are! I did loads of research and would love another 3rd time round but will again do my research and decide what’s safest for me and what im comfortable with, with help from my healthcare team x

I read Pratical ways to make your birth better and it made me see home births in a much more positive light. If I didn’t have a semi with paper thin walls I’d have considered it, but not having my neighbours hearing me give birth 😂 i would personally only recommend though if you are low risk and your previous two had no complications.
