After being completely disappointed with the medical system for birthing options, I've decided (a little late) to homebirth this baby.
My mother is a practising midwife with over 40 years experience so the general instruments for birth won't be an issue - but I would like to source an oxygen canister and regulator as a just in case (peace of mind for me mainly) and also if it isn't too hard to get - some entonox (I understand a script may be required from my GP?)
If you've homebirthed and used oxygen as a backup (to resus bub in an emergency) and/or you've also used entonox that you've sourced, which companies did you use, roughly how much was it and what did you need to do to go about it?
I've read all about alternatives to resus - but to be brutally honest I will only feel 100% if I know there is oxygen there in case. As for the entonox, it would be nice to know it's there if I feel I need it - hoping to not to have to need it but not stressed if I don't have it.
