I love my doctor (re: no emergency drugs at home birth)

I had posted awhile back about being a little concerned about having a homebirth when CNM's in my state aren't allowed to carry any emergency drugs, like pitocin.  I don't anticipate any problems but I did receive some pitocin for heavy bleeding after my last homebirth, in another state.  We decided we wanted to go ahead with a homebirth anyway since we're just two miles from the hospital and really trust our midwife.  I just spoke with my family practice doctor and she is going to prescribe me cytotec to have on hand in the event that I start to hemmorhage.  Hopefully I shouldn't need it but it's nice to have at least something on hand.

That's great! Hopefully you won't need it at all, though!
