One of the key criteria I based my MW choice on was that she was experienced in breech birth. I was determined to stay home for as many reasons as possible and I was happy to have a breech homebirth with an experienced caregiver. I think especially given that I had had a large baby already I knew my pelvis was 'big enough' you know? Breech (and twin) homebirth is illegal where we are now and that really bothers me. I would want to homebirth twins too (given the right conditions). That said, my MWs official line was that she does not support breech homebirth (as she would risk losing her registration if she supported a planned breech homebirth) so it really just that we had her skills if we ended up with an unexpected breech birth and felt it was safer to stay at home than transfer.
I think it's natural to consider a MW change for a new pregnancy. Cassius and I discussed that too... I'm not 100% sure I would choose the same MWs again. My reasons for choosing them related to that pregnancy and the feelings I had going into a first homebirth. My feelings are different now and perhaps I'd want someone I could develop a different relationship with?
