NBC's "The Perils of Home Birth"

[PaxMamma]

On Sept. 11, NBC's Today Show aired a segment called "The Perils of Home Birth". Many natural parenting organizations are responding. If you would like to sign the current petition to ask NBC to use accurate reporting, you may go here:

API endorses a family's right to accurate information in making a decision that is best for them. API's Prepare for Pregnancy, Birth and Parenting (http://www.attachmentparenting.org/principles/prepare.php)provides more information.

I don't have a TV, what was it about?

Holland has a 9 out of 10 I think home birth rate, they have a lot of dutch people there, very very low birth death rate. Must not be too bad to have a home birth ;)

you can find it on their website. i don't want to post it here and promote it.
