Julia, you ask that homebirth supporters should guarantee that no complications could happen at a homebirth. Could you guarantee that no complications could happen at a hospital birth? Complications in birth can happen anywhere, home or hospital. However, if you will research the subject you will note that ALL medical research shows that homebirth is as safe or safer than hospital birth for healthy women with low-risk pregnancies. This means, that contrary to false public opinion and wrong information by even the most well-meaning doctors, outcomes of low-risk homebirths attended by trained midwives all over the world, are the same as or better than hospital outcomes. This means less sickness, death, and retardation, together with less Cesarians and vacuums and episiotomies. These are the facts, not the cultural myths. Couples who give birth at home put safety of their children way above the "new-age experience".
