Order Description
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS AS A CANADIAN CITIZEN LIVING IN MISSISSAUGA OR TORONTO.
Historically women gave birth at home with the support of family members and possibly someone who served a similar role to a midwife today. Today midwifery along with numerous variations in childbirth are available depending upon where you live. Despite the return interest and practice of home birth, most women in Canada still choose to give birth in hospitals with the assistance of a physician. This is contrary to many places throughout the world (eg. England, Holland, New Zealand).
