Something else you can't do while black: Have a home birth without having the cops come and take your baby away.

The warrant presented by police when they seized the baby had the name of another woman on it, not that of the mother. And the father wasn't on the warrant at all.

Katelyn Fusco’s (The Happy Homebirth Podcast) Homebirth Myths

1– “You cannot have your first baby at home.”

You do not have to give birth in a hospital for your first child! Making the decision on where to give birth shouldn’t be dictated by fear! Education & preparation is key!

2– “Having a may be unsafe.”
Emergencies happen whether you are at home or in the hospital. Midwives, if you choose to have a midwife, are prepared in emergency procedures. They have a relationship with the mother & baby, knowing more about what is normal vs. abnormal for them specifically.

Home births increased 23% between 2019 and 2020. Covid-19 pandemic restrictions likely spurred the increase.

* Medical culture is highly invested in risk. This is then projected onto pregnant people / women resulting in diminished trust in birth and are invested in risk.

* When labor starts spontaneously
C-birth rates are between 5 and 20% as opposed to over 50% with induced labours.

* Vbac increases by 40% if birthing at home

US home births reached highest level in 30 years in 2021

edition.cnn.com/2022/11/17/hea

Planned home birth in the US has been associated with an absolute risk increase of about 1 to 2 fetal or newborn deaths per 1,000 live births, according to the AAP. Infants born at home in the US also have an increased incidence of low Apgar scores and neonatal seizures

“ The pediatrician group generally doesn’t recommend planned home births, but it does recognize a woman’s right to choose one…”

Fantastic turnout today at CUMH for the protest against changes to homebirth provision in rural Ireland.

Video: Short video shows a crowd of people gathered outside Cork’s maternity unit. They are opposed to new proposed HSE restrictions which would affect childbirth options for rural families.
