I know two women personally who had uterine ruptures before they even went
into labour. I guess maybe we should all move into the hospital during
pregnancy "just in case."
It's interesting that in many provinces in Canada women have the option of
home birth or hospital birth with midwives, paid for by the government
national health plan. Canada does, by the way, have lower infant mortality
rates than the US. Hmm...
