What type of birth are you planning?

Question

Just curious what everyone is planning on doing. I say planning because I know these babies make a lot of the choices for us lol. 
Before ever getting pregnant I always said I’d have a home water birth. Then got scared. Opted for an ob at a hospital. This time I’m planning on a home birth, but I carry a lot of unresolved trauma and regret from my first birth. Now I’m curious what others are planning on and why they made that choice.

Answer

water birth at our birthing center 😊

Answer

Home water birth with a midwife, if all goes well!

Answer

Planning home birth #2. My first home birth was amazing and it was so nice not to have to go anywhere while in labor! Or worry about sleeping in an uncomfortable hospital bed or getting a newborn into the car for 45 minutes (that’s how far my midwives’ preferred hospital is - though if we need to do a real emergency transfer we just go to my closest hospital). I’m looking forward to not needing to figure out where to put my two year old this time around too! We live with my parents so my mom will watch my daughter at home during the day (and of course she can just sleep in her bed during the night)

Answer

Hospital birth, but hospital birth here is closer to birthing center in the US.

Answer

Absolutely a hospital birth for us at a facility with a level 4 nicu. I want every possible intervention immediately available to us if anything at all were to go wrong.

Answer

Vbac but this baby is adamant on staying transverse so most likely another csection.
