Our midwife has drawn up an essential checklist that will help you decide if it’s going to work for you
Staying in your own house with your partner, the midwife coming to you, being in your own bed the night after you give birth...
If you’re expecting and want to be one of these mums, you might wonder how you go about getting a home birth. Do you need permission from someone official? Does your home need to be checked for suitability? Could your health be an issue? All these questions and more are probably running through your head, which is why I’ve come up with this simple checklist to make coming to your decision a whole lot easier. Work through each section before you make your birth plan.
