This is one of the main reasons why I chose not to have a hospital birth. Hospitals make me uncomfortable and stress me out. I wanted a peaceful, private experience, and that’s what I got! OP, I’m glad you had such a supportive doctor. I hope everything goes well/went well!

Same for me! I had 4 homebirths, and part of that was because I knew that I would be very stressed out in the hospital. With my 5th pregnancy, I was put on bedrest at 21 weeks. The doctor wanted me to be admitted to the hospital at 24 weeks to continue bedrest and I refused. I knew that I would not do well there mentally and emotionally, and that would not be good for my baby.
