My wife is 10 weeks pregnant. We've decided on a home birth because we think that will give us the highest chance of having a natural birth. We also feel a home birth will be much more spiritual and God focused, which we want to make sure Jesus is as the center of it all.
We have found a team with a certified nurse midwife and others that will assist us throughout the pregnancy. We have a nearby hospital familiar with our situation in case a transfer is needed for any reason.
Has anyone else had a home birth? If so, I am curious what your experience was like.
You don't need a midwife. You can deliver babies as well as i did. Youtube. Books. And read u/sadness post. You'd be surprised how little it takes for midwives to call 911 or ambulance. They have their careers and liability as their first priority. NOT MEDICAL ADVICE.
Agreed, that happened to us, a planned homebirth, and she chickened out. Than kept telling us that the baby was still hours away, while waving essential oils around.
three minutes later the baby was out.
LOL
