im having a vbac homebirth unassisted in a few weeks.
i went to the clinic for a pregnancy confirmation at about 20weeks.
i dont know how to find out what im legally required to do for the newborn where i live.
my first son was planned homebirth but i transferred and he was born c-section at a hospital in america.
so they took care of the 'paperwork' and he had a doctor exam. he has never been to a doctor since because he hasn't ever been sick.
i live in the usvi, a us territory.
i dont know how to find out what im required to do as far as a newborn doctor exam.
i try to search but im not very skilled at computer so i just get tons and tons of tourist sites and get lost in internet search hell...!
but i want to cover whatever im legally required to do.
im worried if i go ask at the clinic or a doctor's office it will raise some questions.
or is that just what to do?
anyone?
