[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having a baby is hard work.  Whoever told you it was a vacation?  Years ago women stayed in hospital two weeks after giving birth but that was before greedy insurance companies took over the medical profession.  Sadly, the populace lemmings followed these avaricious companies over the cliff.

We have so many reasons to have a 2nd revolution in the U.S.[/quote]

It is ONLY during the 20th century that hospitals started taking over the delivery of babies. The medical profession told women it was the safest place to be, by god! The US is at the bottom of the barrel in developed countries for safe childbirth. I think we should look at why many of us (you) think babies should be born in hospitals and not in your home or with a midwife.

Read about the medicalization of childbirth. And then ask yourself why you are in a hospital to give birth.

Nowhere did I say women should have babies in a hospital!  You are free to have a home birth BUT if you have problems and you can't get to a hospital in time and you or your baby dies, it's on you.  Live with your decision![/quote]
