Childbirth is not about the mother. It is the baby that mothers should be concerned about. Mothers want this wonderful home birth experience, only thinking about their needs. It is selfish. Think about the baby first, and the safest place to deliver is in the hospital if you need an emergency c section.
Obstetricians do not like it when a woman starts a home birth and runs to the ER when things go badly. Now, they have a train wreck on their doorstep that they have to fix, and are liable for the bad outcome.
Agree. We are so blessed that our son didn’t suffer from his couple of minutes of oxygen depravation. The C-section came quickly when his heart slowed down and then stopped. Praise God for quick and competent medical personnel. He wouldn’t have made it if we hadn’t been already in the hospital.
