http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/2510/Homebirth.html - I'd like to relate some of the common questions we have encountered since we decided to
have a home birth:
Why would you want to have your baby at home?
Aren't you afraid?
What if something goes wrong?
I believe that birth is a natural process. I do not feel that it is a medical condition that requires constant observation and intervention in
order to be successful. Tracy Hotchner says "The home-birth "movement" reflects not just attitudes about birth but about life as a
whole: to simplify one's life and to get back to real human values in a technologized society. The trend toward home birth has been in
direct proportion to the trend within the hospital to treat every birth as a potential high-risk situation. In a technologized society there
are constant trade-offs between technical advances and human values: people who choose home birth are not willing to pay the price
tag of birth in a hospital where the individual and emotional aspect of birth has been compromised."

Homebirth is safe
Studies have shown that in a normal uncomplicated pregnancy, homebirth is as safe as hospital
birth, possibly more so. I carry equipment for emergencies (such as a baby who doesn't start
breathing on their own), and have training in how to use it. Women who are high risk for a
homebirth are screened out during my thorough prenatal care.
