Just had final all clear scan from fetal cardiology (phew) but the consultant can't 100% rule out any abnormality and has recommended the midwife led unit rather than my wished for home birth... :( just in case the baby needs help when born.
My first birth experience was induction following SROM, which was fine, but post natal ward was horrible and we were stuck in for two days until ds decided to feed. Really wanted to avoid that this time hence home birth (had planned hb for first too) and not sure how MLUs fare compared to hb and hospital?
I think my main worry is the level of control I'll feel once the baby is born, and dh having to go home (which we both hated last time). Granted we have ds now so have to be a bit more flexible anyway...
