The names really are outrageous! They clearly were not thinking about what effect that could have on their child!

I was at my friend’s “freebirth”. It was her 3rd birth, first 2 were in the hospital. I was able to “catch” her son as he was being born as Dad wasn’t interested (grossed out by blood). It was a beautiful experience!
They went on to have another unassisted homebirth a couple years later but their daughter was born too quickly for me to arrive!

I don’t agree with freebirthing personally. I think the safety of the child is the number 1 priority as opposed to the scenery.
“Advertising” it is only gonna cause more people to do it and in turn, more infant deaths. The hospital IS the safest place for a newborn.
