I’m about 12,950 Kilometers from my spawn point, according to Google Earth. That place is not “home” since I barely have any memories of it, and left the country during primary school.

    Urban or Rural?

    In my ancestral village, I think home births were commons, but my parents were in the city at the time when they had me so it was hospital birth for me.

      Urban. My siblings were hospital births, but my mom always has been a proponent of more ‘natural’ solutions so I think she wanted to try the less clinical way. She had a midwife there for the birth.

        Oh, I thought it was more of a “we don’t have a hospital nearby” situation. The idea of “natural” solutions is kinda weird… I mean… most of the food today is artificially bred…

        Welp, conservatives being conservatives… 🤷‍♂️

          She’s actually fairly progressive (socially, at least), but on some topics like health she gets kinda nutty… still have not quite beaten the anti-vax out of her although I am happy to say she’s not as bad as she used to be. And she did get vaxxed during Covid after our entire family all got it and pushed her on it.
