Why aren there more hospitals in the Untied States offering waterbirth?
From 1995 to2000 there were great advances in the United States. The U.S. movement is at least five years behind the European movement in acceptance in hospital environments. Midwives and homebirth in the U.S. have been offering waterbirth longer than most of the European counterparts. The United Kingdom has government-sponsored research and data reporting as well as the Cumberledge Report. The states that have made the most progress in the U.S. are: Illinois, Ohio, New York, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Massachusetts, and Maine. The East Coast is changing faster than the West Coast. California has only a handful of hospitals that provide waterbirth services and none in southern California. That’s why you will want to give birth at AquaNatal Birth Center in Chino, CA! .
