Are You Considering Birth at Home?
Article

 

More and more women are now choosing to give birth at home rather than in a hospital. This is a personal choice you need to take considering what might be best for you and your baby.

 

Although home birth is generally safe, there certain situations where experts recommend against home delivery. These include:

 

. Carrying twins, triplets, and so on

. Your baby is not in the headfirst position

. You underwent C-section in a previous pregnancy.

 

Learning more about what happens during a home delivery is important so that you can make a confident decision. The following are some advantages and disadvantages of home birth.

 

+ Advantages

 

Freedom

Giving birth at home gives you much more freedom about what happens during your birth. This may include the ability to move around during labor or who can be around you during birth.

 

Comfort

Some do not feel comfortable in a hospital with doctors and nurses running around them. Giving birth at your home ensures that you are in a place where you feel safe and comfortable throughout the process.

 

Cost

Hospital and doctor fees can pile up if you decide to give birth at a hospital, but birth at home can eliminate all that, and reduce the costs significantly. This, however, does not means that it will sot you nothing.

 

- Disadvantages

 

Emergencies

Having an emergency during birth at home may force you to go to the hospital after all. This means that you need to have a backup plan and be prepared to get to the hospital as fast as possible in case something happens.

 

Preparations

Having a birth at home means that you need to prepare well for it because it can get messy. Be sure to discuss what you need to prepare with your doctor or midwife if you plan to have a birth at home.

 

Cost

If you have medical insurance, you need to make sure that cover births at home. Some insurance provider does not cover births at home so you may need to pay out of your pocket in such situations.

 

Giving birth at home has pros and cons that you need to consider before you decide. Talk to your doctor or midwife about this to gain more insight into this subject. Remember that you should not attempt to give birth at home without the presence of a trained and licensed medical health provider.
