Both my parents were born at home including all their siblings.

Those Irish doctors could get together and figure out emergency procedures where they would not have to depend on the maternity hospital.

My mother in law WAS from Ireland but had her kids here.

She would go see the doctor when she about about 7 months pregnant——one more visit,maybe,and then he would be called to the house for the delivery.

The old days.

My own mother had hers in the hospital and stayed for TWO weeks,now it’s 2 days.
