There are more 'born before arrivals' (BBA's) than planned homebirths recorded. I'd also suggest getting on your hands and knees to get the pressure off the cervix. The likelihood of this happening is very low, 0.4% of births in Vic. Very rare for it to be your first birth also, it would most likely be subsequent births, so of that 0.4% I would say most would be subsequent babies.

I have a feeling I might be having one of these after 2010!!!!
