Home Childbirth from a Prepper’s Point of View
Chief Pistol Packin' Mama on March 11, 2010 in Beyond first aid, General prepping No Comments »I’ll discuss bringing someone into the world the old-fashioned way. I realize that as a man I may not be considered by some readers to be the most qualified person to write this post – but hear me out. I have four kids, all four of which I’ve helped to deliver, the last two of which were done at home, three of which were assisted by midwives, and one of which was done without any assistance at all. I’ve also had EMT training, including classes on emergency childbirth. Nothing in this article, however, is medical advice. If you need medical assistance, you should seek a doctor. What I’m trying to do by writing this is help you to prepare for a pregnancy and birth in such a way that you have options.
Essentially, survival is a mindset and prepping is a lifestyle. Both will be affected by a pregnancy. This article is meant to be a guide for the father in a prepper household, though others should benefit as well.
