i have kept quiet on the whole issue, but i feel the need to say something now. i do feel like what i read on the forum was an attack. i do feel like birth has become so medicalized that a lot of people have forgotten what a natural process it is.
i do not talk about my homebirth on this thread because i do not feel like it is supported. with that being said, i would not put my child under any intentional risk. having a homebirth does not mean risk.
i am an intelligent, well read woman, who loves this babe inside me. if i need medical assistance i will get to the hospital. i am glad that there is technology out there to help if needed.
i do not feel however that my views on birthing and natural child birth are much supported on this site. don't get me wrong i enjoy this site. i enjoy other's experiences with the birth process, but i basically keep my mouth shut on my views.
i have a great midwife and a great ob. i am healthy and ready to experience birth.
open minds are a good thing.
