Hi, I am thinking of having a home waterbirth and just wondering if any of you ladies have had home waterbirths and if so:

how did you find the whole experience ???
how did you OH's cope with it ??

many thanks Fiona

Hiya, I've had two hospital waterbirths, they were great experiences and I had big babes just 1st degree tears. Would love a home waterbirth now this time as my unit doesn't offer W/B in hospital, would be interesting to hear peoples views.!

I want a homebirth this time, but don't think I could deal with the hassle of putting up and emptying the birthing pool! It would be in our front room and would probably take the whole room up!!
