SJ- Maybe Im sleep deprived or just not really focusing enough to quite understand if I have upset you or something along those lines.. Im just confused.
So in my clarity.. I never ever meant to upset or offend anyone with my comments about being lucky to skip and miss a whole heap of hurdles/costs.. because its genuinely how i feel about it. I KNOW i got it easy and had what many homebirth women would have loved to have had, but yes in a sense sometimes I do feel defensive and invalid which you did pick up on a few pages back.
Yes I have felt dismissed due to the way my home birth came around. Yep I admit it was more so a back up plan JIC, and if I didnt labour as quick as I did I would have had a planned hospital birth.. but even in saying that I support every womens right to choice how they birth.
I am thrilled beyond belief that I was able to birth my baby girl at home with my hubby and I and yes it makes it extremely special and after that experience if I ever decided to have a 5th (not going to happen) I would have every intention of having a home birth again.
I admire alot of you for what you have to go through. I hate confrontation and wouldnt cope with alot of the hurdles and hell I admire that fact that your scrimp and save to do what your passionate about because I know if I had to pay, it wouldnt happen.
hmm I dont know if I have really clarified anything
