Sumario:"Supporting Women to Give Birth at Home" describes and discusses the main challenges and issues that midwives encounter when preparing for and attending a home birth. To ensure that a home birth is a real option for women, midwives need to be able to believe in a woman's ability to give birth at home and to promote this birth option, providing evidence-based information about benefits and risks. This practical guide will help midwives to have this confidence. It is organised into three parts: Part one introduces the history of birth and the present birth choices a woman has. Part two.
