unassisted childbirth

ever worry that a homebirth is risky? this is one of the resources that i remembered when i was in labor, halfway dilated, and realizing that i couldn't have a midwife present. positive stories like these are what pregnant women should be hearing about, instead of all the crazy worst-case scenarios that we're routinely fed. www.unassistedchildbirth.com
