10 Reasons I Like Homebirths

1. Our Midwife is a Christian.
2. Hospitals are in cities, our home is in the sticks.
3. No driving on city streets.
4. No running to the wretched city between milkings.
5. Midwife less likely to cut my wife up to make an extra buck.
6. Midwives bring herbs not drugs.
7. Our midwife owns a chicken tractor.
8. Wife won’t be induced becouse Doc wants to leave for vacation.
9. One more practical way to spit in the eye of Pagan Industrial Culture.
10. You don’t have to lay your child in one of those ugly plastic boxes.

    Let me, the pregnant lady, clarify. ;) I’ve done LOTS that resembles labor just nothing that truly IS labor. In the Lord’s perfect time! :)

    I understand the “lots that resembles labor” as I have contractions 5 or 6 times a day, but I’m almost 3 months from my due date!

    I love the list by the way!
