Thanks Andrea, I have been inundated with replies which is terrific! The woman who is inquiring for her sister has just had a c-birth for breech presentation (although she made them wait until she was in labour and 7cm dilated) and wants a homebirth next time. She's moving up to Cairns herself next year so all this info will be good for her too.
Cheers, Cas.
