Maybe some of these girls that do SH were turned down by a hospital to have their baby there and they felt no other choice.
It happens, it happened to me(I found another hospital but the first one I went too sent me packing).
I only went to planned parenthood early on and hid the pregnancy from my family I contacted an agency a month before I was due but things kept getting off track with contact and not getting paperwork to fill out in the mail and things like that.
I finally met with someone from the agency literally the day before I went into labor
When the contractions got bad I went to a hospital and they were so mean to me since I did not have a doctor I was seeing.
They stuck me in the supply closet on a bed in there and since my contractions were not that close together they sent me home and told me not to come back there. She gave me the number/address of the free clinic to go too, even though it was Saturday and they were not open til Monday. The nurse told me to go there Monday and the doctor will be expecting me.
And right before I left she said, "Now remember do not come back here, if you do we will call the police, you are lucky I did not call them right now, you could be going to jail"
I went home confused and upset and did not want to go back to another hospital in fear I was going to be arrested. 12 hours later contractions were getting worse, and thankfully the person from the agency convinced me to go to another hospital and when I got there I was already 4cm into it and they ended up being a wonderful hospital and so nice to me.
I am just saying, some girls might go through what I did and not have anyone to convince them to go to another hospital.
With the hospital there was a massive paper trail and phone calls.
