Hi: I had a home birth in july which was the best decison i made. It is my first baby and all my freinds and family was horrified that i wanted a home birth. I was relaxed and was able to enjoy the experience without having to worry about anything else. My water broke at 17:30. Pain started at 21:30. had a lovely bath for over an hour in my own bath. Called midwife at 00:30, she arrived at 01:30. Was already fully dilated when she arrived. 10 mins later my son was born. All natural with no gas or air. I was not worried that something will go wrong. but home birth is not for everyone and if you don't feel comfortable or confident then i will suggest that you might be better off in hospital. The best of luck with the birth whichever option you go for. Regards
