Members of the home birth movement
have chosen their alternative form
of care not through faulty understanding
of medical principles, but as a result
of active and reasoned disagreement
with them. Bonnie O’Connor

 

The real question about safety is not
whether you want a pleasant birth at
home or a safe birth in the hospital?
It is, “Do you want to give birth at home
and run the miniscule risk of an
emergency that might (but
not necessarily would) be handled
better in the hospital, or do
you want to give birth in the hospital
and run the considerably increased
risk of infection, the certainty
of additional stress, and the near
certainty of having unnecessary
(and potentially risky) interventions?”
