I had a c-section with my first son at a hospital obviously , and due to that being such a scary negative experience I decided that with this baby I wanted a homebirth so I got a midwife and had him at home in a birthtub. It worked out very well for me no issues whatsoever . My baby was actually a full pound bigger than my older son that I had by c-section supposedly because he was too big!No I did not need to go to the hospital afterward.
