I agree with sushe you need a lot of zchusem to give birth at home – only a really holy person is allowed to rely on miracles!!
I know of ppl who gave birth at home the babies lacked oxygen at birth and are NOT healthy today.
Also, just as Hashem created women to give birth “naturally” Hashem gave doctors the knowledge to heal. It is our Hishtadlus to go to doctors and hospitals. Yes the mortality rate was a lot lot higher in the Alta heim!!
If your husband is having a heart attack, you wouldn’t call an ambulance? Because in the Alta Heim they didn’t call an ambulance!!
I personally had an experience with one of my children where with no prior warnings he was not breathing at birth. The baby was not in stress till I gave birth because it only happened right before I gave birth. Baruch Hashem I was in a hospital they got the baby breathing in seconds he spend a week in the nicu and is Baruch Hashem a healthy child.
