MongolPower 0 Posted April 28, 2006 I don't know if it's been stated but Ama was born at home and his father was as midwife. When they took him to hospital he weighted 5kgs. So he was born big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for the information. It's the first time for me to hear that. Just I've wondered ... is it usual to give birth at home in Mongol? Ama was a big baby.... 5Kg (Clapping wildly...)

I did not know a man could be a midwife (Clapping wildly...). Would he then be called a midhusband? (Clapping wildly...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkhembulgan 0 Posted April 28, 2006 (edited) Just I've wondered ... is it usual to give birth at home in Mongol?Ama was a big baby.... 5Kg :-S In urban areas of Mongolia everybody gives birth at home... (Applauding...) Of course, everybody can get an obstetrician's help in hospitals. But delivery at home is not very unusual for rural areas. Even there professional midwives or physicians are able to come and assist the mother. Edited April 28, 2006 by Erkhembulgan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coo-cook 0 Posted April 28, 2006 (edited) In urban areas of Mongolia everybody gives birth at home... No. It was the case until 1930-ies. Probably, you mean "in countryside". Even in countryside, after 1950-ies, most Mongolians are born in small hospitals (or practices) called "county health care centers". Well, the communist system was a very stupid system. But, the public servise was not bad at all. We had a very decent health care and educational system during communist times. Though, I agree with Erkhembulgan's remark that born at home was (and still is) not an unusual thing in Mongolia. Edited April 28, 2006 by Coo-cook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jakusotsu 4,993 Posted April 30, 2006 (In a state of confusion...) Why should it be split? It's all very much on the original topic. (Except for the the meta-discussion of course.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
