Controversial subject!
I'm struggling to find anyone who is understanding, and I'm not looking for validation but anyone with information or experience on having a free birth?
I'm not abandoning or excluding the idea of any professional medical help, I just feel that the last two times I gave birth the experience was utterly ruined by the hospital staff and panic ensued making what should have been beautiful and empowering, terrifying and scarring more than anything...
For the record I will be hiring a doula and having thorough private ultrasounds/health checks performed by a trained professional so i'm not going in blind!
I just do not want to become part of the mooing herd of cattle I felt I was last time ushered in and out by the NHS who quite frankly appeared not to give a shit...
I would really appreciate any insight on this subject but please try to be positive in your approach as it is a huge decision on my part!
