Homebirth Encouraged by the Government

By , About.com GuideMay 25, 2006

Follow me on:

The British Government is saying that they will begin actively promoting homebirth as a way to demedicalize birth in that country. Can you imagine being offered a homebirth with a midwife during your prenatal care? While homebirth is an option that people in the United States do choose, it is one that they often feel like they swim upstream to obtain despite the safety of homebirth. More and more people have questions about homebirth including what it's like and who does what. Try reading some homebirth stories to get a feel for this type of birth.
