Pregnant with #3. 
Two natural births under my belt. Was hoping for a homebirth this time but unsure how dh would respond to that idea. With the first one (in hospital!) I had to talk him into a midwife instead of a doc! Then second one I had to talk him into a freestanding birth center instead of the hospital. He is wonderful - the most supportive guy - but still I worried that he would just not be comfortable with homebirth. And how could I be completely comfortable if he is scared to death? But he is fine with it! I am pretty psyched! Using one of the same midwives we had with dd2 - other one retired. 
My friends already think I am way out there that we don't use docs or hospitals (after the first time - which was fine). They will be fainting in the aisles at this news but hey, it is up to me to educate the masses, huh?

Sometimes I worry that he will bug out & not fulfill my "homebirth-dad-stereotype" then I have to just throw that out the window & remember that he will do his own amazing thing just like he always does.
