Giving birth *in hospital* naked would not appeal to me at all - and I am
not hung up about my body or nakedness, but I do like my privacy.
But hospital birth is, very often, not at all private - in many places
staff feel free to walk in and out of the room during labour without even
knocking, and the door might open out on to a corridor or other public
space.
You might as well labour and birth in Piccadilly Circus....
