I know this is a long shot, but we're starting to feel a little desperate. My husband & I are expecting our 2nd baby in April and VERY much want a homebirth...
I'll do my best to see what I can dig up with my resources. There are other options, too, outside a hospital birth AND a midwife attended birth. Email me...
Wow, glad I looked at the name before I replied. I was about to reply and tell someone that I thought you may know of one. Oh well. Been a long day. Give...

I don't know how comfy you are with the idea, but there is also always the option of doing the birth yourself, with no professional assistance. I've been...
Jess, I would actually LOVE to go unassisted. If you'd told me a year ago that I'd feel this way, I'd have thought you were nuts, but as I read more about it...
Cool, I was wondering if I was the only Heathen woman into UC LOL. I'm on quite a few groups, and the mix is mostly Pagan (not Heathen) or Christians who are...
One thing I did figure out about the local hospitals here. The nurse told me that they cannot force you to have a c-section. All you have to do is say no....
Well, that is actually true of everywhere. To do a medical procedure against your consent is assault. They can (and will) however tell you that you are putting...
And they are wonderful children, too. :o) Marie is my favorite student in my kids class and Brocc has all of us wrapped around his finger. Julie also in Oregon...

It's true hospitals can't force you to have a c-section (unless they get a court order). I don't know about you, but the LAST thing I want when I'm in labor...
It doesn't really matter what the doctor feels about the situation. If the hospital he/she is working in (even if he/she only works there during the birth and...
no, it sounds like your practice is sane ;-) most are but you know about one bad apple, right? Gillian ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...

After your last experience, I wouldnt want to be in the hospital either. OR have the midwife that you were cursed with. Angelia ... From: Jess C. J. Frazier ...
Yes I do... I was lucky that my ob practice was fairly "hands off" for most of my pregnancy but being diabetic made it so that I had to be there every other...
Is that for moral reasons or just something personal? I've though that when my husband are done it might be nice to not have to worry about an accidental...
... My experiences were a couple decades ago, but it might be useful to share. All my births were planned as homebirths, although for my son, we transferred to...
I thought I knew my stuff when I was pregnant with Theodwin, hence why I got a midwife and was planning on a homebirth in the first place. But she got scared...
... Anyone know if there's a book out there from the perspective of those who have learned like Jess and myself, or should we be adding a book to advise young...
There's a bunch of different designations of midwives in the United States. Some are Certified Nurse-Midwives and have gone through some mainstream nursing...
Most of what I've learned is from reading various books on homebirth. There are also a few books on unassisted birth, some by women who came to unassisted...
