Is home birth a good option?

I am thinking about my birth options and wondered if home birth is a good option?

Women have different reasons to want to deliver at home. Either they feel scared of hospitals or want to avoid unnecessary medications and treatments. Some of them just want to deliver the original way. But to get the agreement of your doctor may not be easy. The advantages of home delivery with a familiar environment and the relatives around are obvious. But unfortunately, there is often no safeguarding if something unexpected happens.
