I just have to wonder, what if something goes wrong, you know? Like, cool, you're healthy. That's nice. But she doesn't even want a midwife. What if the baby is upside down? What if the umbilical cord gets twisted? What if the baby isn't actually healthy, considering she's had maybe not even the bare minimum care and scans? How long would it take to get to the hospital from the farm and would they get there in time?
I've read of home births where people alert the hospital nearest to them that it's happening so they're ready just in case.
It's also so not true that all hospital births have to be traumatic or extra medical. My mom had me in hospital with literally zero meds and the doctor essentially was just there to hold her hand as my dad passed out no one forced her to do anything or get anything she didn't want. But they were there in case something went wrong.
