And at the opposite end of the spectrum, how many elements for pregnancy there are as well! (And no specific Delivery, but Outcome of Delivery. Do people in US not usually give birth in a hospital?)

Edit: Not US but England

    In the US the hospital is most common but there is a growing movement for alternative birth methods, birthing centers, at home births, being strapped to a wall and having crystals shot at you until your baby just sort of materializes, etc

    While there are fringe anti-science people pushing for home births, the main cause is lack of health insurance/fear of unexpected bills.

    I know a number of home-birthed people, including myself, and I could not describe a single parent of theirs as being anti-science. Also this graph is from English hospital admissions so cost/bills would never ever enter the equation.
