They must include the author's name, address and telephone number. I was greatly concerned by the article for several reasons. I choose home birth. There are times when a physician is necessary. Regardless of where you are if God wants that child to be on earth, then it's going to happen.
Babies die from such an irresponsible attitude.
God gave us knowledge and medicine and doctors. He wouldn't want any baby not to live because of the idiocy of the mother or the lack of concern by an unskilled midwife.

It was expensive, but well worth the extra cares and concerns for myself and more importantly my baby.
