My HB turned into a FB. I dont think i would plan a freebirth but i havent been faced with that decision. If the govenment makes HB impossible they i will have to think about it as my births are far to quick to get to a hospital.
Id suggest she call an ambulance when it gets to the exciting end. they cant force her to go with them but they can be there ready to go if needed and they wont leave her if she needs them! The worst she will have to do is sign a form to say that she wont go with them! Also there are then a few issues with getting a birth cert. which i sure she could figure out from the Free birthing people.
Its a bit naughty and not really using the resourses as they are intended but thats what we think we;ll do next time. whether we have a MW or not, seeing she is likely to be up to an hr away and the ambulance station is only 5 mins away!
