Very good photos - enjoyed them all, including 'glad pappa' which I
am guessing means 'happy dad' :)
In the UK, there are many places like this which offer similar care,
but some are not well-entrenched - they come and go, with the
vagaries and politics of funding and priority-setting.
We are not as techno-focussed as the US, and midwives are still the
lead professional at the majority of births - and that is the key to
preserving a woman-centred birth (and breastfeeding) culture, IMHO.
