Recently I have seen a new article on Home Birth vs Hospital Birth circulating on social media. This response caught my eye, a piece on autonomy in women’s reproductive choices by Birth Anarchy Blog. She posits, it should not merely be a discussion about what method of birthing is safer or better, though this is helpful in making informed choices, but any such conversation must also respect what the woman ultimately decides is right for her, whatever her reasons may be, and trust that her choice is the right choice.
What are your thoughts?
“These conversations – about homebirth studies, about home vs. hospital – they’re never really about safety.
They are about control.
They are about keeping women in their place.
They are about restricting access to choice.”
