Answer:
"B. "I want to have more control, but I am concerned if an emergency would arise."
Explanation:
Planned home birth which entails a pregnant client opting to give birth at home rather than in a clinic or hospital often comes with its advantages and disadvantages. An healthcare provider or a certified midwife always assists during labor and delivery at home.
The statement which best indicates that the pregnant client understood the pros and cons of home birth is statement B, "I want to have more control, but I am concerned if an emergency would arise." One of the advantages of home birth is that the pregnant client in her convenient setting that looks familiar, exercise more control over the experience. The pregnant client can decide to take any birthing position she likes, take warm showers, use aromatherapy etc.
Statement A, C, and D don’t indicate a better understanding because of the following:
1. Home birth is less expensive compared to giving birth in hospitals.
2. Complications might arise during birth, and it is more risky compared to giving birth at the hospital.
3. A certified midwife can handle the delivery process, but in case of any emergency, the pregnant client would be transferred to a nearby hospital for proper handling of the emergency.
A. This is the correct response.
