It is entirely possible to give birth to a posterior baby. In fact, there are some advantages to undergoing a posterior labour at home.

Posterior labours will last longer, because the position the bub is in means it takes logner for them to descend. In a home birth situation, you are comfortable, there are no time limits as long you and the baby remain healthy, and you and the baby will remain healthy for longer because you are able to eat, drink, and rest as you need to. As a result, it is possible to have a long and gentle labour, which is what many posterior babies need to gradually move down the birth canal and be born.

You are also free to move around at a homebirth in a way that, even in the most natural of hospital births, you are not. Homebirth midwives are adept at monitoreing your progress and the condition of your baby unobtrusively, and do not interrupt you when you are in the flow of your labour. That mobility, and the opportunity to really focus on your labour, can help during a posterior bath.

And finally - water, water, water! Posteroir labours often involve strong back pain. Homebirth and waterbirth often gpo hand-in-hand, and even if you're not planning a waterbirth, you still have a shower or bath at your disposal without having to share it with other women. Many women find water fantastic for back pain.

And to answer the crux of your question - the unlikely secnario that what, if despite all of this, you did not progress? Your homebirth midwife will be experienced and will be able to continuously monitor and assess your health, and the health of the baby. They will ensure that, if either you or the baby are getting too tired, that you are transferred to your booking-in hospital in adequate time to allow for any necessary interventions.

Hope this answers your question.
