I am meeting with a midwife tonight to discuss the potential for a home/water birth. Looking forward to assessing how I feel about it further and to see if I am a candidate for this type of delivery.
Good luck! I would love a home birth. With my first I spent about 8 hours submerged in water. It felt amazing. It was the only thing they eased the pain.
I have an appt with the midwife at my local birth center in two weeks. They have jacuzzis in the rooms, but don't actually do water births because their tubs aren't big enough. We visited last week and loved their philosophies and the fact that they're across the street from a hospital for emergencies.
