Home birth or birthing center?

Question

What are the pros and cons for having a home birth compared to one at a birthing center?

Answer

Birth is 100% natural. Midwives are highly trained and are present for the whole labor and know when something questionable happens, to go to the hospital. So unless you are high risk, delivering a baby at home or a birth center is safe. Just research it and you will find delivering out of a hospital is just as safe if you are healthy. My future midwife described the difference between at home and birth center as the exact same, but one someone comes to you and the other you have to go to them. Otherwise they are the same.

Answer

I am a l&d nurse. From someone who sees the healthiest of pregnant women suffer complications during delivery on a frequent basis I would say labor as long as possible at home, then for the safety of you and your baby go to a birthing center for delivery. There is so much that can happen so fast, and if you are not in the right hands the consequences can be devastating.
