Hi! I am planning a homebirth in Late August/September and I am not using a tub. I have been trying to find videos of a birth without a birthing tub and still at home but they are few and far between. If you can recall any videos that sound like what I am looking for plz link below🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 thank you!
Hi there! I am 22w6d and I had my first meeting with my chosen midwife today! Everything went great and we had great conversation, but the topic led to sugar intake and how it is best to lower that as much as I can and up my Protein intake. She specifically told me that the most transfers and C-sections that she has is because the baby is bigger and drinking sugary drinks can contribute to that a lot. I am trying to cut down on them as cokes and coffee are my favorite drinks but now I’m a bit scared that she won’t be as supportive of home birth if my baby ends up seeming bigger. I’ve read Ina Mays guide to childbirth and have looked into a lot of midwives say that our bodies are made for the baby and can move out of the way for baby to come through (except in medical exceptions of course).
Any moms with positive unmediated birth of a bigger baby as FTMs? Would appreciate reading your story or getting advice!
