I saw a discussion on 'free-birthing' yesterday, which i had never heard of before.
It was bonkers (IMO) it involves no scans, no tests, no drugs, no doctors / midwives.
I'm all for doctor free, drug free, home births but going without even a scan or a single blood test seems madness (and so potentially dangerous) to me.
The woman who heads the movement has has 5 kids this way, and says we don't need medical intervention of any kind.
What do you think? Have you / would you?
