Part Two of Birth Experience

     Wow! Still learning to maneuver Walden's classroom and realized that I had missed the part about birth experiences in other countries. I looked up birthing practices in the Netherlands and was I surprised! Over half of the births are home births with a midwife attending. All expecting mothers have to pick up a birthing kit which has medical supplies needed for delivery,whether or not they are planning a home or hospital birth doesn't matter ! Even if the birth takes place at the hospital and given there are no complications, most mothers go home with the baby within two hours of delivery! Boy, talk about your no-nonsense attitude, it makes me curious to know what the general attitude towards child raising is.
