How do you plan to birth? - Page 2

[bluey]

Both mine were hospital births...this one will be too. There are no midwives in my area (too rural) and the ones I did contact while willing to take me on as a client I would have to travel to far to see them

However, I'm not to torn up about it. With my last, I was left to do my own thing as I wished so I was happy with that.

I am planning an unassisted birth with this one. I had a hospital birth with ds, which was horrendous and a UC with my dd which was fantastic. I will probably book a homebirth with the community midwives in case I want them on the day.

HeatherKae,



This is all I could find about LLL in Korea. I hope you'll find a situation that is perfect for your birth, or that you can make perfect! Best wishes!

We're planning a hospital birth with CNMs and a doula. I dream of a homebirth, but DH is not going for it. This seems like a good comprimise.

My first was an awful hospital birth with a "too medical" CNM. This time I'm definitely trying for a home birth with a midwife. I HATE hospitals.

First Birth was a nice labor and dilvery when all heck broke loose when the NICU nurse got in the mix and took my DD to the NICU so ANYWAY... We are having an MW attended UC ( LOL yeah you read right)

[HeatherKae]

Yeah, like I said, at this point, I'm doing the head in the sand. I'll go into the HQ when home and see if they have anything else they can offer.

Thanks! I appreciate it.

hmmm... good question

My first was a c-section. My second was an unmedicated hospital VBAC w/ an OB. We are checking out a free-standing birth center next week but I still haven't decided between that and a hospital with CNM's.

My 1st two babies were delivered in a hospital with CNM. 1st experience not so good, my water broke early at 38 weeks, I was induced with pitocin after 24 hours and had neubane. I was naive. 2nd went 2 weeks overdue and I had to be induced but no pitocin. No meds and wonderful midwife and doula (sister in law) but lost 2 liters of blood after birth. I am thinking about a home birth but hubby is against it. He thinks because of problems with 1st 2 deliveries that a home birth is not a good idea. I'll work on him though, do lots if research and have sister in law and midwife talk to him. Maybe he'll come around. I think my losing a lot of blood really scared him last time.

tls, i lost a lot of blood after my 3rd dd. I was very close to a blood transfusion. I have went on to birth FOUR more babies w/o any problems. A natural birth and natural birth of the placenta will help tremendously with any bleeding problems.

Hmmm not sure

I had a hospital birth with my son and I had the BEST OB deliver him.

The only problem I face now is he no longer works at my OB clinic. I'm soooooo sad!! He was seriously the best doctor I have ever seen in my life. He was very gental, he made sure I didn't rip or need an episi., he was supportive of any position I wanted to try, he didn't push drugs...he was just wonderful.

I hope I can find another OB who is just as good as he was at the same clinic because my birth experience with my son was amazing.

I am going to have my second home water birth- I am super excited!!!!!!!!!!
