It took two births to give me confidence for a home waterbirth aurora - it's bound to happen when you rock up in hospital at 9cm and just push your baby out - could have saved myself a stressful trip!!! Now I AM looking forward to doing it at home, in safety and comfort of my own surroundings where I will be upright (when I got there I was flat on my back and no-one thought to put me up, I couldnt get the words to ask) and I will be sure to have great birth support people. Many homebirths happen quicker because of this, not uncommon to hear them as being 4-5 hours or less etc.
It would probably take about 10 babies to get that 'perfect birth' but I am just going to go with what feels right for me, what feels safest and then birth is bound to go better
