Abortion, contraception, VBAC and homebirth are not currently illegal in the US, though all may be difficult to access, especially for poor women.  But there are those on every side who would choose to legislate away women’s bodily autonomy — the AMA would like to outlaw homebirth, and those who would like aboriton to be illegal (and thus illicit and dangerous) proudly call themselves "pro-life".  Thank God I gave birth to a daughter in country where women have reproductive rights allowing us to give birth in the manner of our choosing.  Thank God we have the legal right to choose to end unwanted pregnancies and give birth in our homes to wanted children.  I pray that I will some day live in a country where poor women can have access to subsidized homebirth midwifery and abortion care.
