It was a personal choice because Alexander she went to hospital with, and because he didn't progress to "their" timeline, the intervened too much and the typical nowadays scenario occured, she ended up in surgery to have a caesar. They stuffed up royally, to say the least, so this time she had a home birth instead with midwives, which after 9 hours bub came out happily without issue.
If she went to hospital, they wouldn't have allowed her 9 hours in 2nd stage labour to get bub out, once again they would have taken "their" easy way out and gone for surgery. They fed her lots of shit the first time, broke her waters which you should never do, drugs and lots of intervention, and because he was posterior, all this crap he ended up distressed in utero, hence emergeny surgery.
Caleb was posterior also, but the water and no drugs, contractions etc, is what helps turn the baby, and did at the last minute as the female body is designed too do. Hospitals are now about timelines, in... out... done. They don't like waiting for a women to have a natural birth anymore, because its too much of their own time taken up. Hired midwives instead for a home birth, which did the trick just fine. Both healthy, no surgery to get over or emotional aspects to get over.
Kerrie still struggles emotionally now with Alexanders birth, and this would have just confirmed too her that she was actually capable as a woman to give birth without intervention. Hopefully this will help her now realise and understand the level of intervention the hospital forced upon her last time which made it all turn bad.
Thank you all for the lovely support. Sorry about the pics, the camera is still at the hospital. I will bring it home today and post pics.
Oh... Kerrie now has Alexanders chicken pox also.... piss funny. She looks like one big chicken pox now.
