What do you think of home birth?
An acquaintance’s wife gave birth to their second child at home yesterday. I’m not very close, so I don’t know all the details. By all accounts, though, mother and baby seem to be thriving.
When I first heard of the home birth, my honest reaction was “Yikes! Is that safe?”
How prevalent is home birthing, and does anyone here have first or second hand experience with it?
