Home birth possible?

After my experience with HUKM yesterday, I think I better equip myself with more knowledge about childbirth.

Hoping to get the least intervention from the hospital staffs, as I do not want to be poked underneath (especially to check the opening of cervix during birthing) uneccessary by students and learning nurses just because they want to go through their trainings.

Spoke to my dear friend, Wai Han from hypnobirthing.com.my. She is willing to spend sometime with me with the relaxation. Some of you might know she gave birth all unattended at home to her 2nd baby? Got picture here, hehe…She even showed me some pictures of home birthing with twins…

I know it is going to be very risky to do that for twins delivery…..

But at least with sufficient knowledge, I wouldn’t have to depend so much on the nurses while I am giving birth, right?

Don’t think I got the courage to a home birthing, although I do imagine myself and thought about the possibility whole last nite :)

Who knows, if my babies come out too early, or I can be as relax as her, I might not even make it on time to the hospital!!!!

(Oh yes, my hubby, a 7th child, was a home-birth baby too as her mum did not make it to the hospital on time!)

    1. Oh Chin Nee. Home birth with twins is a bit scary :( No harm learning more but IMHO, it’s still better to do it at the hospital :)

      dont think i got the guts to do it all alone, hehe…

    4. after my experience with baby zen (his heartbeat dropped during my contractions), I think I’ll be bit afraid of home birthing.. but I think the relaxation part helps a lot :-)

      it surely helps in some way :p

    5. Excellent idea! Arm yourself with as much theory as possible, so that when it gets down to the nitty gritty, you know what you’re supposed to be doing!

    8. Hi Chinnee, I too envy Wai Han’s efford and courage of home birthing. She is very knowledgable, I guess the best person for us to talk to. Have you sign up the Hypnobirthing class? Whatever you decide, my wishes with you & babies.

      have yet talk to her. will do soon.

    9. here in Msia, not encourage lor…u have twins ler, better go to hospital lar…hehe

      18 hours is really too long ler..hehe…

    11. hubby wanted homebirth too but i chicken out. too scary lar. :)

    12. and that is amazing, it’s actually my first time see a photo of a baby with the umbilical cord still attached to the placenta…

      yeah with some knowledge, then it’s not bad at all…at least you will be prepared.
