I'm really interested to read these.

I am currently planning my first birth which will be a home birth and wonder if I will get through it ok, even if I put everything in place to ensure I am supported and informed. Is it simply the unknown that makes it all so scary?

Really interesting thread and I am curious to hear of everyone's experiences!
FWIW Aimz I was scared that I wasnt scared the first time . I actually said to a midwife- Im not scared, is that a bad thing?
