Home birth & birth pool hire

Why have a home birth?

It increases your oxytocin (the love hormone) levels and helps you to stay relaxed

You can feel settled and in charge from the very beginning 

Intervention rates are lower for home births

There is less chance of developing an infection

You can prepare your birth space and atmosphere

You can invite whoever you like to be with you during labour

You can cuddle up in your own bed with your newborn

You will have a midwife with you during labour and a second one will be there for your baby's arrival

Home birth

This video has been created by Better Births Lincolnshire and United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust to show what it can be like to give birth to your baby at home.

Thank you to Naomi for sharing the birth of her baby with us!
