Hi ladies,
We have just recently moved to Guildford and we are expecting our first baby.I'm 26 weeks now. (est. due date 13th Jan.)We are eligible for NHS, though I don't have any idea about how long the process of application will take. Besides I have heart that NHS hospitals tend to intervene during the delivery.
I want a birth as natural as possible, with the least intervention possible and I'm also considering a homebirth.
What would you suggest to me? Should I look for an independent midwife? Should I see a private doc? Any recommended ones? Are NHS hospitals (Royal Surrey) in Guildford good enough? Can I find doulas here, since we have noone from the family that would be great.
Thanks for taking your time.
