    Dot Face! Welcome! I had to LOL at your GPs comments about drowning I guess the moral to the story is that one, shall not, while labouring at home in water, feel the need to undertake the swimming of laps due to increased risk of drowning mid contraction hahahahahaha!
    I am sorry though that you had to face such sucky, ignorant comments. I had that too, until i found a GP that reflected our values and actually knew a thing or two about HB (unfortunately a rarity!). i was once told by a really ignorant GP that sterile water injections were a lot of crap and nothing more than placebo and then proceeded to tell me that getting a shot of the water in the leg was a nice way to pretend to get pain relief hahahaha. i was like, ummm, first off, it doesnt go in the leg and anything you tell me here on in is like white noise.

    and oh, the dead HB baby stories. they do like those. As though a baby dying at home is far more tragic and unpreventable than your baby dying in hospital...which it is not. study after study has shown outcomes for mothers and babies to be on par with planned hospital births.

    Teni: 2013 has to be the year baby!!! bring it on!!!!!
