Home Birth

In some parts of the country, family birth is not uncommon. Traditional midwives and midwives who have not been trained have practiced for decades since the advent of modern medical facilities and hospitals. However, by improving our maternal health system we succeeded in reducing the devastating complications leading to maternal and perinatal mortality. So then, there are still some women who are enthusiastic about family births why they can enter the local hospital.

The Netherlands still cherish the birth of the family. In 2013, about 20% of babies were born at home. This is one of the highest birth rates in developed countries. This is partly due to the Dutch attitude to women born without medical treatment, cheaper than hospital delivery and safe for delivery at home. Midwives and Veloskondige usually help mothers during childbirth, family birth is covered by Dutch medical insurance, hospitals that do not need medical care may be rejected.

Regarding family birth, most women who choose to give birth at home wish for natural birth with little or no intervention. I believe that childbirth is a normal part of normal life and not a disorder requiring hospitalization. When they are at home, they feel they can control their environment and be there. (Cohen & Dorsey, 1998). On February 6, 2007, Sheila Shribman, director of clinical affairs for adolescents, obstetrics services, pediatrics, said: "Make it better: serve mothers and infants.In the early 1950s, the probability of maternal death after childbirth or childbirth Was 1 in 1,500 people and 30 out of 1,000 babies born died of stillborn or other causes.In infant mortality rate the infant mortality rate of 1,000 infants is less than 5, It shows a 6-fold decrease.

In Western countries, the delivery area is expanding, and trained bulldogs and quick access to hospitals in crisis situations are an easy choice. However, in the third world family birth is often associated with infant mortality. Why do not women use hospitals? Recent research by Dr. David Mang'ong'o in Kilifi County in Kenya has found that several factors are working. A person may be taking care of expenses near or in the hospital, but others may be pressure from the family. 9% of respondents acknowledged that the husband needed a place to give birth. While only 75% said they could choose freely, 11% said extended families forced them to provide services at home. However, the third factor is the educational level of women. Women's educational standards are often low in areas where many families are giving birth. Dr. Mang'ong'o said girls' education could have a significant impact on the safer delivery.
