Is it me or is it more of an American thing that kids are predominantly born in hospitals?
Did that for my first and it was horrible. Went with a birthing center and midwives for the next kids and it was so much better.

Hospitals are absolutely the norm in Germany as well, I'm not even sure we have a thing called birthing center

Yea, when I drive by them I was think about how crazy it really is in there. Shits wild af!

think that’s normal in most countries besides home birth

So are beds. If you want to say life begins at conception like so many people do, then beds are the spawn points and end points
