intervention???
hi everyone im g/c from ttc...
really want a home birth for my third whenever i get preg.
my first baby was a pretty regular 7lb2oz BUT my second was 9lb 5oz...which some might say is quite a big weight jump...obv id be concerned that a next baby MIGHT be bigger again...and i got to wondering what if i needed forceps or suction (cant remember real name)? do they do this at home?
i havent needed this previously but just wondered. i know they can give you gas and pethidine/diamorphine in my area, but i dont know about this, thanks.
thanks ladies xx

i am just thinking ahead to possible things that might happen.
dh is quite against me having home birth as no2's cord was round his neck as he was born, and it scared him alot, and he also had to be sucked out as he had swallowed meconium...so i am a bit worried and dont know if a homebirth is best x
