How does it feel to have a baby without the help of a medical team?

Irresponsible. Suddenly, a rupture, hemorrhage, or a child ... Stuck, confused, God forbid suffocating. Even with a midwife at home - probably not very smart

In my family there are maternity hospitals and home ones. In the maternity hospital, one child was "slowed down", which led to a slight curvature of the spine. In other childbirth, the doctors did not wait for the placenta to emerge on its own, as a result, she was pulled and torn, and she came out in pieces.
Later, the wife began to read the forums and subscribed to the "home child" magazine. One of the incentives for home birth was that during childbirth, the blood from the baby is squeezed out into the placenta and must flow back, but doctors do not allow this, because according to the instructions, the umbilical cord must be cut early. They also inject inhibitory substances in the evening, and accelerating in the morning to sleep at night.
Many of our friends gave birth at home, but usually people keep quiet about home birth, and this information is learned slowly and accidentally. but with midwives, but formally they do not provide services, but simply come to visit. In the event of threats to the life and health of the child, such midwives are much more likely to be able to correct the situation, because if the clients are determined to sue them, they will be jailed. And maternity hospital doctors stupidly follow the instructions written by male surgeons, and skillfully know how to come up with excuses.
My wife persuaded several acquaintances to give birth at home, and after giving birth, she was answered “why didn’t you say before,” and she said before, but they did not hear her. Of course, we have heard about cases of stillbirth and infant death, and it is fortunate that there were no such cases among the sagitated.
The attitude to stillbirth in home-grown babies differs from the generally accepted one: If a child gets a defective body, he has time to assess the health of the body at 9 months, and if the problems are serious, then he will have to live with it, and he has the right to decide to leave the body so as not to torment himself and others. If alive, then healthy, and if not healthy, then not alive. Recognition of natural selection imposes on "home" parents the obligation to protect their health with all their might. With this principle, care for the health of children occurs constantly, throughout life, and begins long before childbirth. If a girl drinks wine on holidays, then she is already playing the lottery with the health of children, because all the eggs are created in her at birth, and only alcohol can damage them. In general, opponents of pharmaceutical medicine often decide on home births. Pregnant women are very suggestible in terms of giving them drugs, but those who read the annotations, after visiting the residential complex, immediately lose confidence in state medicine, and understand that maternity hospitals also support the pharmaceutical business, but children are already harmed.
Historically, by the way, maternity hospitals were created for homeless people and prostitutes, and normal people gave birth at home.
By the way, the life expectancy in past centuries (before moving to cities) was this: either they died in early childhood, or lived for 100 years, that is, the quality of health of those who survived childhood was excellent. The indicator "average life expectancy" was not very high, but there were no diseases lasting for years.
More about the nature of children: it is obvious that the rejection of the hospital is often followed by the rejection of the kindergarten. As a result, maternity-kindergarten children are more accustomed to patiently do difficult work, and home children are lazier, and they say aloud that they do not want to do unpleasant lessons, because they will not be useful in life. Which of them is smarter is a difficult question. I think high endurance is a more useful skill than giving up unloved activities, because when you change occupation, hard work remains.

This is at least silly at the moment, I think. Childbirth is a rather complex process, associated with loads on the body and various kinds of pain and trauma, which the woman herself clearly cannot cope with (any breaks, too painful contractions or the fetus may not go through corny) - do not use a scalpel to fuck yourself at home on a bed in case). Many women now deliberately go for a cesarean, because it is easier and in some ways faster than natural childbirth, but in most cases it is still a necessary measure in the event of an emergency. A successful and easy delivery without the help of doctors is, unfortunately, a very small percentage in all statistics. Therefore, it is better not to experiment with this anyway.

This is one of the stupidest things to do. My girlfriend works in the intensive care unit for newborns, we were engaged in the study of children with PPCS (a bunch of incomprehensible letters). So, when I get acquainted with the anamnesis of children, I saw a lot of interesting stories, after reading which no mother wants to give birth at home. If you are indifferent to your own life, then take care of the child's life, since any wrong action, and they, believe me, will, will respond in the future as the effect of the 5th wave.
