DD loves Runa's Baby, one of the books the m/w left for her. It's completely in line with how I think she'd be with a birth. I've watched some HB videos on YouTube with her. I'll let you know how it goes, but I'm confident she'll cope okay. DP wants to be responsible for her, but I might line up a nearby friend with a DD in her class if she needs a break.

Thanks for your feedback on your DH's role. I'm feeling more like DP is normal for probably not being totally into it.

I went up to the hospital to arrange for my booking in case I need to be transferred. I have the option to nominate an ob as a private patient, so I'm going to ask my friend who's a doctor at the hospital who I would be best off nominating. I know I won't necessarily get them, but it can't hurt to ask. The booking clinic person didn't seem fazed about the HB bit, so I'm hoping it stays that way.

Congrats Cricket!
