Why You Should Consider To Give Birth At HomeIn this day and age, you may wonder whether there is any woman who give birth at home. The answer is yes. Despite the rampant use of technology for birth these days, there are still some women who prefer to have a childbirth at home. Many of these homebirther are usually in a good economic situation, well educated and properly insured. So, in fact, nothing can stop them from getting the latest 'technology' for the birth, if they want to. Nevertheless, these women choose to give birth at home. Why ? The main reason why they want to have a homebirth is because they want to maximize the chance of having the kind of birth that they want. What they expect from a childbirth is 'more than just a baby delivery'. They are aiming higher than that. They want to have a birth which is intimate, personal, empowering and unmedicated. They want the birth to be a joyful family event. This kind of births, while difficult to obtain at a hospital, is very possible to achieve at home. Therefore, women who aim for this kind of birth tend to choose to give birth at home rather than to go to the hospital to give birth. This is because at home, you have the power to do whatever you want. You are not bound by any regulation and hence are free to do what you want and NOT to do things that you don't want to do. For instance, when you decide to give a birth at home, you are free to create an atmosphere that you would like to have for birth, to wear your favourite attire during labor and birth, to eat and drink, and so forth. These things, while considered as 'small things', are actually the source of birth satisfaction and eliminate the stress level associated with birth. The availability of these things help to make labor and birth to proceed smoothly. In contrast, hospital birth is heavily managed. Women do not have the actual power during the birth process and have to submit to the hospital policy whether they like it or not. Stress level often escalates after hospital admission and contributes to the slowing down of labor. Not to mention various obstetrical intervention that women are experiencing during labor at the hospital, which change the course of normal labor. Therefore, women who want to maximize the chance to have an empowering natural birth tend to choose to give birth at home. Besides that, there are also other reasons why women would want to have a childbirth at home:
