Home Birth Safety
In June 2005, the British Medical Journal published a landmark study stating that planning a home birth attended by a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) offers as safe an outcome for low-risk mothers and babies as does hospital birth. The researchers used prospective data on more than 5400 planned home births in North America attended by Certified Professional Midwives during the year 2000. You can read the study HERE.
In September 2009, a study of nearly 13,000 planned homebirths was published by the Canadian Medical Association Journal. Once again it was shown that a planned homebirth with a registered midwife provided safe outcomes for mothers and babies. You can read the study HERE.
