    Done!

    put this comment in:

    "As a medical student who's worked in both hospital and home settings i chose home birth for myself and my son. Looking at international statistics in European countries with a midwife model they have much better outcomes. Banning home birth is NOT practicing Evidence-Based Medicine and is not in the best interest of maternal or neonatal health. Sadly, I do not feel comfortable leaving my name because the AMA/ACOG's attitude is so reactionary."
