Home birth Mamas?

Question

Hi! I'm Kim, and I'm expecting my 2nd and planning my first home birth provided all goes well in my pregnancy. Any other Mamas out there who have either had or are planning a home birth? I'd love to hear some encouragement and tips! Thanks!

Answer

My husband and I are planning a home birth (once we conceive) I'm very excited about it

Answer

I wanted a home birth sooo badly!! I begged my husband.  He said no...then we found out we are having 3 so a home birth is out of the question lol!!  I wish you the best of luck!!

Answer

I had a very long but otherwise normal labor with midwives in a hospital for my first and this time am trying to decide between a home birth or birth center. Unfortunately there is a lot of misinformation and negativity out there about home births and I am finding it difficult to continue to deflect it all. However my husband and I both feel strongly that the hospital setting is not ideal for us in the course of a normal labor and have met with a number of really amazing care providers not in the hospital setting who make us feel really excited at the prospect regardless of who we choose. It's hard to overcome the fearmongering out there though so it's nice to see others who are choosing a similar path. Peace and blessings!

Answer

If I get pregnant I am hoping for a home birth. My second pregnancy brought about our daughter (first was chemical/early loss) and she was born in 12 hours, no meds, no IVs, at a birth center. We don't have the same options here and I go quickly once I "let go" and felt safe. I was in some denial in early labor and didn't want to cooperate with the contractions until we decided to go to the birth center. Then I wished I could hold back, and couldn't!

Answer

I have had 4 hospital births. TTC #5 and planning a homebirth when we do. :)
