Had No Time to Go to the Hospital and Instead Ended Up Giving Birth at Home

Nimo Mama Keon: I'm so excited to share with you my positive emotional home birth of our 2nd son . We had planned for a hospital birth but things happened so fast that we had no time to go to the hospital and instead ended up giving birth at home. Ps- Special thanks to my beautiful midwife for guiding me through the pregnancy and taking me through the birth process amazingly. She’s wonderful.

Giving birth at home or in a car when you planned to deliver at a hospital or birth center can be very scary. Despite what you see on TV medical dramas, this is very rare in real life. But there are close to 9,000 births a year that happen at home and are unplanned or unattended. If you find yourself giving birth alone at home or elsewhere, here's how to deliver your baby as safely as possible.
