Home birth or hospital birth?

Hey girls I’m only 5 weeks I know I’m early haha , I’ve been trying to conceive for around 3 years, this is the first time I’ve fell pregnant. everything is just going through my head and I’ve always said I want to do a home birth, but I’m curious to people’s experiences and opinions , What are the pros and cons? Thankyou ❤️

Following because I’m wondering the same! X

My only advice would be to keep an open mind! I think it’s brilliant to have a birthing plan in place but there’s so many variables that can mean what you want just can’t happen. With my LG, I ended up in theatre having an epidural and assisted delivery after a 48 hour induction process which was definitely NOT my dream birth story but it was still a magical experience meeting her for the first time despite nothing really going to plan!! Fingers crossed you can have a home birth if that’s what you’d like though - I think it would be AMAZING xx

My first I had in a hospital and didn't have the best experience with some of the care. This time I'm hoping for a birthing centre birth instead. I've heard really good stories about birthing centres and the care seems to be so much better. Remember all hospital are different so you might have a better experience. I would also see how the pregnancy plans out. I had really high BP and protein present the day I had my little girl so I had to stay in hospital till she was born
