For my next baby, i am having a homebirth (its been decided even though i'm not pregnant yet!) and if I can't arrange/afford a private midwife, I'll be delivering by myself. The bleeding thing scares me, which i suppose is the point. If you don't have a midwife there to stitch you up then you're done for >.<
Baby socks did you have a traumatic birth in the hospital? What was reason for your decision to homebirth next time?
The thought of PPH scares me too. I went to my 38 week hospital appointment and was told amongst other things that I have the same chance of uterine rupture as the last time, even after I birthed my baby naturally (he was my VBAC).
As a result when (or if) I come into hospital I have to have constant foetal monitoring. I really just want to birth at home, because of the fear of being treated badly again etc but they really know how to put the fear into a near due pregnant woman.
So I don't know what to do now. I am just really worried and anxious about having this baby (my fourth)
