Issue #7: Is home birth safe?
I have just found out that I am pregnant with my first and I really want a homebirth, but my partner is against it as he feels it is not as safe as the hospital. Can you please let us know if home birth is safe?

Issue #3: Risks Associated With Advanced Maternal Age And Caesarean Section.
Loving your podcast so far.
I’m 37 and have a 18 month old who arrived C-section due to being breech. Previous pregnancies were a missed miscarriage (was induced) and an ectopic and had surgery to remove tube. My dream is for next bub to be delivered VBAC and minimal intervention. I worry because I’ve been labelled high risk due to pregnancy history, age etc. I might be advised against this.
What are the actual risks and percentages associated with age, C-section etc?
