The Business of Being Born

The debate over Midwives vs. Hospitals has been an ongoing and controversial issue that in my opinion has an extremely obvious answer. Every mother is different, and every woman has a different body type that has very specific wants and needs when it comes to child birth. I think that if a woman is able to have a natural birth at home with a midwife, then she definitely should. A woman will be thankful that she had the chance to have an emotional bond with her child immediately after giving birth. In my opinion, the only time a woman should have a birth in a hospital is if her physical make up would not ensure a safe labor. I guess I should not be giving advice on being pregnant or giving birth because I am not a mother, but from the knowledge I have gained and the research I have done on this topic, I do believe that at home births with a midwife are the best option when it come to child birth.
