Thanks girls....I forgot to mention that I have enquired about the homebirth pilot project through Casey Hospital, and also while trying to make an appointment where the girls were born, the lady informed me that they do offer homebirths through this hospital if requested...I was unaware of it for both my other pregnancies. The head midwife is going to call me and have a chat. I also have to ring Casey and find out what their program is about. I am wondering if the hospital led homebirth programs would offer as much support as IMs? We just cant afford an IM at the moment unfortunately...unless....hmm...I go back to work! That might be an option if they have payment plans Must go do some researching! I will try and gather some info for dh and i to look through, to settle his nerves!

And I was thinking....if this is our last child we could have it at home and invite my mum and his mum. I think that would be nice. His mum has 3 boys so she hasnt been to any of her grand daughters births! mmm...that might work on him!!!
