Hi, sorry to post on a thread, but I would also like to open a birthing center. I am not sure at all where to start. I live overseas, and the hospital births I have seen here are horrible. There is no option for women that want a natural birth, aside from a unattended home birth. I don't think midwives are able to deliver babies here. Is it possible to open a birthing center attached to a hospital. Still have the drs deliver the baby, but with a home birth feel to it. In other worlds, dr just checks the baby with a Doppler, and catches it when it's born! Can anyone oping me in the right direction?
