"However, home birthed mothers today tend to be among the lowest risk

include myself since I had two home births) also constitute a group with
lower risk with regard to breastfeeding difficulties."
This would be a really interesting study to do in The Netherlands. I don't
think it has been done, but due to the proportionally high rate of home
births would lend itself to a good study of breastfeeding rates after
hospital vs home births. However, this of course means that there are a
higher proportion of 'medicate' births in hospitals than in other countries.
Might be an interesting study if the long list of confounding factors could
be accounted for.
I'm going to talk to collegues about this because there could be something
in this???
