Hemorrhaging
Anyone here have a homebirth, yet, hemorrhaged? I've hemorrhaged with my last two now. The first time, I had midwives and they suggested to get a pitocin injection. It worked. With my second (and third birth), I had to get a pitocin injection again, but, it didn't work. I had to get a second injection. I still left the hospital in less than 6 hours to come home though.
I had all three of my deliveries in the hospital and thought of having a homebirth for my fourth. Midwives carry pitocin for homebirths, but, I would like to hear other people's experience, if you've had any. Also, I've used the laughing gas for the last two births and am really fearful of not using it during transition for this birth.
Thanks for your thoughts.
