Episode 49: Why Is Everyone So Pushy About Home Birth?

In this episode, we take a closer look at the ongoing debate around home birth versus hospital birth. We tackle common misconceptions and explore the historical shift from home to hospital birth, highlighting why home birth is often misunderstood.

We discuss:

👉 How home birth is frequently misrepresented and unfairly compared to hospital birth.

👉 The historical context of birth practices and why the narrative changed.

👉 The over-categorization of risk and how many of us might not need hospital-level interventions.

👉 The safety, comfort, and empowerment that come with birthing at home.

👉 Practical insights on creating a relaxed, supportive environment with effective hypnobirthing and pain management techniques.

👉 The importance of making informed, personalized choices based on your comfort and safety.

If you’re exploring your birth options or curious about the benefits of a home birth, this episode is packed with evidence-based insights and personal stories to help you decide what's right for you.

🎧 Listen now—because understanding your options is the first step to a confident birth journey.
