Hi Jomum, this is my 3rd pregnancy but wanting a home birth this time i think as first 2 weere hospital births. Im torn actually between home and water birth so if any one has advice on both that would help me a lot! I find alot of people quite nervous about me having a homebirth just because incase anything "goes wrong" but my last 2 labours/births were so straight forward either of them could have been born at home without any problems. But i suppose there is always that worry of something going wrong and needing to be transferred to hospital but i am really drawn to a homebirth this time. i am due 1st jan, last 2 babies arrived early so dont want to be in hospital over christmas either really. xxx
