Hospital home birth programs arnt for everyone, but I really really loved my midwives I had, I had a fantastic bond with them and I was never pressured or told I had to have any tests I didn't want. I didn't have the gestational diabetes one and the midwife didn't even bat a eyelid.
Personally if I wasn't allowed to homebirth through them I would have felt that there was a reason for it and happily gone to the hospital but thats my opinion. luckily im blessed with pretty good pregnancies and fantastic labours.
