More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME ..
Very interesting post.
My parents...both born in 1930 were born at home. And my mom's parents lived about 1 mile from a hospital at that time. My mom's dad died in 1936 when she was 6...his wake was at their house...kind of creepy to me, but I guess that's how things were done during the Great Depression.
Giving birth at home in 2011...you have got to be kidding...just my 2 cents.
