Thank you so much for reading Tegam. I have really appreciated your support and caring through my whole journey xx It really was a spectacular birth and the crazy thing is you can't plan the unplanned so I could never have planned for it to surprise me in it's awesomeness like that... but I wish I had known and not have had to go through the damn rollercoaster ride my pregnancy turned out to be!

Congratulations Boomba!!

Freya, I didn't have the energy to reply to the posts in the FB group but I think there was a little too much focus on the CMP and publicly funded homebirths letting women down. I guess, honestly, they do risk women out more often than an IM would but I think the homebirth scene has become very risk adverse with the witch hunt that goes on. So I think you're seeing more and more IMs risk women out of their care for more minor reasons too. I don't think it hurts to talk to your CMP MW and get her honest opinion on the program. And it doesn't hurt to talk to some IMs and get a conversation going there too. I changed MWs at 30 weeks so it's not too late if that's what you decide to do.
