Home Deliveries are NOT just for Pizza!!

Here is the link to an article on the home birth vs. hospital birth debate-- and all the animosity and anger that keep this debate flowing, and also keep consumer choices limited to all or nothing, black or white, hospital or home.

It doesn't have to be this way, and I wish people could spend more time getting to know the other side before passing judgement, and opening their minds a bit to the possibilities and benefits to a situation they might not see as ideal. And both sides are guilty of this.

This is just more evidence of why it is so important to be an educated consumer when it comes to your birth, your provider, and your choices. Options are more limited with some people and some places than others, and its important you find a birth team who has a similar opinion to you on what is important to you, and will be able to support your choices well through all the variations that can happen at a birth.

Ask questions! Get to know your provider! you will only have each baby ONCE, so there is only one chance to cultivate good memories from that day. Choose wisely...
