I have a niece who delivered her last child at home. But then, she’s an RN.

My daughter delivered with only the assistance of her husband. The mid-wife showed up about 5 minutes after the birth. Both were fine and healthy. Her husband however still doesn’t want to discuss the experience.

“I have a niece who delivered her last child at home. But then, she’s an RN.”

Some of the most passionate homebirthers are former labor and delivery nurses. They know what happens in the hospital, and don’t want any part of it for their own children.

Some doctors have also had freebirths, including Sarah Buckley in Australia.

PS I’m not a doctor, a midwife, or a nurse, but I was determined to learn the skills of natural mothering and then put those skills into practice with my last two pregnancies.
