49 states allow nurse midwives to deliver your baby inside your home. Not Nebraska.

In a notable divergence from the rest of the country, Nebraska remains the sole state where certified nurse midwives aren't permitted to assist with home births, despite the fact that 49 other states allow this practice. This restriction ties into a broader mandate requiring physician supervision of nurse midwives in Nebraska, a requirement not shared by most other states. This policy stands in contrast to a growing national trend towards more accessible and personalized maternity care, highlighting the state's unique stance on medical practice and regulation.
