I figure this is my best chance of getting experienced home birth moms. I am really on the fence about doing homebirth or birthing center. I toured the birthing center, which is a wing of a hospital, so emergency is close. The only thing is they don't let you push in the tub. I just have this vision in my mind of birthing in the water and being able to rest there for a bit while baby adjusts to being outside. Then there is always the fear of things going wrong at home. Meconium aspiration, shoulder or other positional dystocia, hemorrhage, etc. I think I am leaning towards birthing center, just because of those fears. Did any of you have bad home birth outcomes and regret it?

look into a different birthing center. lot of hospitals won't allow tub birth because of control issues (you can't see what's going on the whole time) I'm planning my at a center with hippie-like midwives and couldn't be happier. strive to meet your birth plan,don't settle.
@loveless, thank you. And congrats on your healthy, happy babe!
nothing went wrong during my labor and home birth. I did it unassisted in water and it was an incredible experience. My baby is 3 months healthy and strong, she's been able to lift her head since she came out. keep that vision of your birth, your baby is telling you what he/she wants and you already know. it's not impossible, those fears and doubts are part of the process. I recommend checking out indie birth, it's a website that provides free information on all things natural birth, it helped me so much to alleviate those fears
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
We have limited options in Hawaii. This is the most mom and baby friendly birthing center on the island... @addi-maesmama I wish we had a hippie center to go to. The midwife I want to meet to discuss homebirth is an older hippie.
