We often hear women say, oh this is my first time, so I would prefer a hospital but for my second, I will choose a home birth.
This is rooted first in fear and that home births are essentially unsafe, second a trust that is yet to develop in our bodies. Hence, we expect when we would have seen better, we would be more confident.
However, Krupa decided to have her first at home.. With a doctor in Mumbai, who supports home births. We would hear from Krupa, her reasons, experience and how she feels about it now as a mother of an almost 2 year old baby.
Krupa and her husband took birth classes with me which furthered into postpartum lactation support for a month.
And about Krupa : Krupa is mum to her 20-month old baby. Professionally, she is a trained therapist and an interdisciplinary researcher in psychology, art and anthropology. She is based between Mumbai and Germany where she presently teaches creative practice and anthropology to postgraduate students.
