Birth Stories

Homebirths in Singapore

Having a baby at home can be a wonderfully special experience. Read about parents in Singapore who have chosen to give birth in the privacy and familiarity of their own home.

Lisa's story
Lisa had never planned to have her second baby at home but Thomas surprised her! Although unexpected, Lisa and Matt were very happy with the way they felt in control of their environment and being able to slot back into a routine very quickly with their toddler.
 

Meghan's story
Meghan wanted to have her second baby at home, as she had had her first in London, but when she first started to explore her options in Singapore, she encountered a great deal of misinformation and discouraging responses. After pursuing many leads, Meghan at last found a doctor who fit well with the kind of medical support she wanted for her birth.
 

Mary's story
Mary and Dan planned a homebirth for the birth of their second baby. Mary describes in wonderful detail the comfort measures and techniques she used as she moved through each stage of labour, including visualization, using heat packs and a bath, and vocalization.
 

Lisette's story
Lisette and Jan wanted to have their second baby at home, as is common practice in their home country. They planned carefully and were well prepared. After several frustrating days when labour seemed to start only to stop again, Lisette gave birth to a second daughter at home as planned, after a short labour.
 

Jeffrey's story
Read Jeffrey's hilarious and touching account of his baby's birth -- a must-read for every dad-to-be!
