A Home Birth article
A recent article in the New York Times, "Baby, You're Home," eloquently describes the growing trend of home births among a diversity of women. Even though that we have been giving birth at home since the beginning of time, the frequency is increasing now and inspired by many factors including the documentary: "The Business of Being Born." Natural childbirth at home may not be for every family, but it's wonderful to have choices and information to make a decision that is right for each individual and situation.

Hi Petra-
The homebirth midwife mentioned in the article, Miriam is going to be catching our baby soon.
I was happy to see the article, but did not feel that it was pro-homebirth or even evidence based. I thought it painted a muted and negative position. I believe in home birth and know many of the women in the article, but did not think it did us service.
Can't wait to hear about your beautiful baby and Lotus Birth experience.
