The uncertainty of hospital care

It is reading nurses blogs that make me see how stressful their jobs are.   How understaffed many hospitals are.  How that can effect the care mother’s receive there.  It reinforces my belief that for low risk moms, the best care you can get is from a well trained midwife who trusts birth at home. 

It took me 3 births myself and attending many births as a doula to get to this place.  If I have another baby it will be at home.  I already know who my midwife will be.  🙂

I hope all expecting moms take the time to interview at least 1 homebirth midwife, even if you don’t want a homebirth, just to SEE and ask questions about what it would entail.  Some people are so worried about the mess, but it isn’t that messy and guess what, the midwives clean it all up! 

Here is the post that I read this week that made me remember this!
