I'll check it out, but not changing horses at this point. Actually, I'm really happy with my Ob. He teams with a great midwife who I meet with when he's on school hols with his kids. This time round I am only paying for hospital cover, because I am always healthy and I don't need extras, so I found the fund that was most cost effective for obstetrics hospital services alone.Kurazia, NSW Teachers and I think Unity Health both cover part of (about half with Teachers, which is what I'm with) homebirth. I don't know if it would be too late for you to change funds?
However, I would consider a homebirth or something similar next time, now that I have experienced an uncomplicated pregnancy and I feel more confident. I'll see how the hospital and birth experience goes. I've never been to hospital for anything in my life.
I thought the Birth Centre did support VBAC. How do you go about organising a private midwife for a homebirth? I thought this was almost impossible in Australia.I am choosing to see a private midwife and am planning a homebirth partly because the Gold Coast Birth Centre doesn't support VBAC.
