Wow, congratulations and well done!

What the doctor told you is interesting, I had a fast labour with my last and no-one told me it was dangerous. That is also interesting about calling an ambulance at the first sign of labour, did the doctor seem to think that all future labours would be quick?

And my first was a posterior bub too! Not sure if he was born posterior, but he was positioned like that the day before I went into labour and I don't think he turned between the appt and the start of labour...I wonder if there's any connection at all...
No one up till the dr checked me over to discharge me had mentioned it either but thinking back I understand why they kept such a close eye on a couple of things without mentioning it like my bleeding levels and I noticed it was written on my paperwork to give to my gp when I got home. I think the reasoning behind calling the ambo is that they really cant tell and its safer than trying to drive or birth at home given the risks it can involve. He did say the chances are very high. I am unsure about homebirth, I dont think its something that is supported with qld health no one I know has been given the option, and from what I have heard new legislation is making it illegal for midwifes to be hired for them.

I think only 5 or 10% of bubs that start labour posterior are born posterior, they usually rotate before coming out, DD was just stubborn from birth lol.
