Strange you should bring this up....it happened to me when I was born (nurses didn't want responsibility for delivering me who was arriving in the elevator on the way to the delivery room) and to me when I was delivering my first born. All of my babies were born natural, though.
I heard more than one horror story of a baby wanting to come out and the nurse making the mom push her legs together - or even worth, use a strap to bring the legs together because the doctor wasn't there yet.
I was horrified!
Congratulations on the home births.
That is terrible!!!
Sometimes people say that they wouldn't feel brave enough to have a homebirth and I always say that I wasn't brave enough to go to the hospital. I was scared :)
