I want a water birth for sure hopefully at home it will be my 2nd earthly child 7th pregnancy

Undecided between hospital or home birth for a future baby that’s not yet conceived. This would be the 4th full term baby. History of easy deliveries. Looking for support I have not traditionally received.

All natural birth preferably waterbirth after c-section

Not currently expecting, but planning. I solely am looking for a professional to come to my home and is there in case of an emergency, and to do the tedious work like weighing, measuring, and likely bring any needed paperwork. No prenatal care or post care I am set with that. To be frank, I have watched about 20 species of animals give birth, have helped if necessary , and humans have been doing just fine without medical intervention since the beginning of time; it isn’t a medical emergency (unless there is one). To be honest, it isn’t a woo-woo “beautiful” experience to me, OR something that always needs a hospital visit, it’s simply nature. But because things can still happen, I’d prefer someone there in case medical intervention is needed. Since I cannot find a birthing center near me (where I may be allowed to snack/walk/birth in any position I’d like) I am highly considering a home birth, with minimal intervention. Unless there’s an emergency you’re fine to eat snacks on the couch, if I feel sick or am in pain I kind of get irritated at the “you’re doing great” pep talk things, so I don’t think I would really enjoy that, just looking for the expertise.

I plan to have an unmedicated home water birth. I wish to give birth in a kneeling position in a birthing pool. I wish to have movement during labour and a calm environment with dim lighting. I only want fetal monitoring if my baby is in distress or if medically necessary. I do not wish to be offered pain medication. After the baby is born i do not want to cut the umbilical cord right away until I decide when the right time is to do so.

Birth at hospital, I have blue cross complete Medicaid and I’d like minimal intervention and testing. I want nipt testing because I have a child with downs, I want ultrasounds and I want to birth all natural and have delayed cord clamping until the cord is white. I want minimal people in the room and just want a calm dark environment to birth naturally in a safe place just in case there’s complications because all my babies have had jaundice
