This shows a home birth?

British experts say that birth in a hospital setting are not always the safest choice for the expectant mother. So a large number of pregnant women should be allowed to give birth at home.

If a situation arises that requires urgent intervention of the surgeon, or call a special resuscitation team with equipment for baby, the home, the patient will be virtually impossible to help.

However, doctors from the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the UK believe that up to a third of all women would quietly give birth at home or in private centers without the help of doctors. In this regard, obstetric services should be radically reformed to expectant mothers receive the best care anywhere, not only in a hospital setting.

The idea is to enable women to pregnancy, is not serious, go through homebirth   or get help with specific tribal centers with the participation of qualified nurses, midwives. A hospital doctor on duty round the clock to the highest qualification only should be delivered to the future mothers the risk of complications. Among these women, aged, as well as those who harbor several children.

At the present time through homebirth   are about 3% of expectant mothers in the UK, another 7% use the services of private tribal centers, staffed by nurses. Others prefer conventional hospital doctors. However, in recent years the number of births with complications in the UK has increased. Experts attribute this to the obesity epidemic is gaining strength, as well as a large number of mothers age.
