Answer to Question 1

Sixty percent of all women who bear children report a mild degree of emotional depression between the second and fourth day after delivery. Ten percent of those who experience depression report severe depression.

Answer to Question 2

Alternative birth centers are home-like settings that allow relative and friends to visit during childbirth. The mother gives birth in the same room as labor. Home births take place in a home, usually with a midwife present to assist the birth. This type of birth should have an emergency backup plan in place in case of emergency.
