Abstract
In Salt Lake County, Utah in 1972 and 1975, 167 women had planned home deliveries. Birth certificate data indicated they did not differ from the total population in age, marital, and socioeconomic status. Eighty-four women were interviewed and reported hostility from health professionals which may have placed them at unnecessary risk.Keywords
