Really interesting study looking at outcomes of home-births versus hospital births. They found that babies born at home had lower Apgar scores (which measure the baby’s vitality) and were at greater risk for seizures. This was less true when the provider was a certified nurse-midwife as opposed to another variety of midwife. Curious to know what the home-birth advocates out there think of this finding. If you had or are planning a home-birth is your provider a CNM?
