i'd rather take the risk that comes with a homebirth than the risk that comes with a hospital birth.

People are such perverts... the subject is childbirth... not sex.

Good video, but the host should learn to quit interrupting and trying to turn the conversation back to herself. -__-

@MamaStrega totally agree!!!!!!

@Indiegirl007 Nurse midwives can also give you pain drugs. They just also have a less pushy way of assisting in labor.

I ended up with an EMCS with my eldest cos the MW's simply got too impatient. I had laboured for 45 hours, baby wasnt in distress & nothing wrong with me. Unfortunately, i allowed myself to be bullied into it. Second child - i changed hospitals and did a birth plan which basically said not to even mention a section to me unless my or my childs life was in danger. They didnt. 54 hours of labour later, my second child was born naturally.

18 months to recover from cs, 10 days for vbac.

@Indiegirl007 You should definitely watch Ricki's documentary then.

thank you I will take my midwife delivering my children anyday over an ob-gyn. Midwifes help a mother more, they are more caring. They dont like to induce a mom nor do they like to do c-sections like doctors tend to do because of the convience factor.

I think it's cool, if you decide to have a baby at home with a midwife. Women for thousands of years have being doing it, and have come out just fine. (obviously, because we're all here to talk about it) But if lost my brain somewhere and decided to have kids, I would definitely, DEFINITELY want to have it in a hospital. They can give me drugs for the pain, and not just stand there and tell me to breathe.
