What type of people choose homebirth?
There are many reasons people choose homebirth. In my practice, I have been hired by chiropractors, registered nurses, La Leche League leaders and members, lawyers, religious families, military families, teachers, professors, and those seeking alternative birth options, such as VBAC. What safety equipment do you carry? I carry an oxygen tank and hospital grade resuscitation equipment. I have intravenous equipment, antihemmorhagic medications (prescribed by physician), and oral suction equipment. Certified Professional Midwives are trained to handle situations such as stuck shoulders, postpartum bleeding, and resuscitation of the newborn/need for oxygen.
