Hmm...makes you wonder how women had babies before modern "medicine". I live in a very rural area. It's part of the lifestyle to travel long distance for services of any kind. And a lot of women are now using licensed midwives that come to their homes. Always with the fear no matter the subject. Or maybe they're just trying to keep people from moving to rural areas.

I live rural. We travel an hour for ALL healthcare.Very common in any rural area anywhere! WE drive an hour for food. Movies. Shopping. Etc. We live rural because WE WANT TO! We bought a subscription to AirEvac in case of emergency.
