What are the reasons for death during childbirth?
It’s extremely rare these days that women die during childbirth these days. The vast majority of potentially fatal problems are foreseen and post partum infection rarely gets to a point where to can cause much more than some discomfort. By delivering in a hospital, they’re well prepared for every eventuality. Even if they missed something vital in the scans and you began to bleed out, they can have you in surgery to repair the damage within 5 minutes. If pain is an issue for you, take the epidural, it’s a life saver! You’re in good hands in a labour and delivery suite these days, don’t let that fear prevent you from having what you want from life!
