    Meow I was/am the same I would only be transferred if absolutely necessary. But that's where I trust my midwife to know when there is a need rather than a scare iykwim.

    Mrs nerd burger: I will ask Tegam for you as she hasn't got much of a chance to get on the computer at the moment.

    Same, I was very careful about choosing my MW so that I trusted her on the issue of transfer.

    Thanks guys

    Meow - big hugs lovely

    Bella - I'm in caboolture well, bellmere really.

    I have a friend who is a student midwife who said she will be my support in hospital, thinks I'm pretty high risk for a home birth (given my age, would be 5th pregnancy, vbac again -still, and cos I tend to bleed) so I emailed my midwife from tas to ask her - she said I should have stayed there cos they wouldn't consider me to be high risk!

    I'm happy to go to caboolture hospital with Lisa cos I know she would support me and I wouldn't have to fight anyone cos she would get everyone to leave me alone, but having support at home would be better!
