    helly. I always think we should plan for the best possible scenario as well as the worst...so I would still recommend a Homebirth...but I totally get why you are questioning it.

    Congratulations PZ! I look forward to reading your story!


    Helly I am so sorry, sadly i know how you feel.... its ok to talk, just because it was a fairly 'normal' birth for most it was terrible for you! Know that you have support and friends here! HB next time for sure, dont let a horrid system stop you from being a mumma to another bub! Just learn to be quiet about when those old water break! Hugs and best wishes and you cope with all those mixed emotions about the birth and the joy of your new son!

    thanks for the hose/tap attachment suggestions ladies! Still have plenty of time to get to bunnings and get sorted but good to know where to start!!

    The last few days my back has really started to ache by the end of the day and either side of my belly feels so tight I feel like I can't possibly stretch anymore! Also have started with the heartburn/reflux and spent my shower this morning spewing stomach acid...yuck! Just when I was starting to feel strong and healthy and energetic!

    Helly, I'm sorry your birth didn't go as you had hoped and planned - big, gentle hugs to you xoxoxoxo
