Hi~

I am a home birth mom of eight kids, six of them born at home, by choice. Are there any on here who are planning a home birth, with or without a midwife (we went "unassisted", again, by choice, which means we didn't use doctors or midwives), and what made you choose the option to home birth? How did you like it? I only want to hear from those contemplating this option, in the midst of this option, or who have had this experience already. Thanks!

Additional: For those of you who are against home birth, please bother someone else! I live in the USA, but most women in the UK birth with a midwife and have safer births, less C-sections, and less maternal and neonatal deaths than those women who birth conventionally in hospitals in the USA. Not my opinion, but fact.
