OK, I'll try to add a few more thoughts here.
Does your DH realize that the doctor nearly killed him at birth? Induction in that situation, from what you have said, sounds completely uncalled for. Induction, according to hospital guidelines, is meant for life-threatening situations. Apparently very few doctors have read the hospital guidelines. It was because he wasn't ready to come out that he almost died. If his mother had planned a homebirth, the chances are much greater that he would have been born when he was ready to come out!
At the hospital, there is often a mindset of control. They are in control. They determine how long labour should take, and what your role is during labour, and what will and will not be allowed as far as how and where you labour, and what you can or cannot eat, and they will tell you what is good for you.
Generally, I don't think anyone at the hospital is "out to get you" They want to do their jobs. They want a healthy baby and mother too. But the practices of many hospitals are not keeping up with the research. The research shows that you shouldn't mess with labour. You shouldn't keep a labouring woman in bed. You shouldn't strap her down to all kinds of monitors. You shouldn't stress her unnecessarily with time limits and deadlines. A healthy woman carrying a healthy baby should be left alone, so to speak. (not truly alone - she needs her support people.) But as far as procedures go, she should be left. Periodic checking of the fetal heart rate should suffice. Vaginal exams are unnecessary for the most part, although personally, I liked to hear what progress I was making in actual numbers. A woman in labour should be comfortable in her environment, active, eating and drinking lightly, and surrounded by people she knows and trusts. Not whoever happens to be on call that night.
The WHO recommends a c-section rate of 10%. That's for all births, including all health situations for mother and baby. MANY hospitals have a c-section rate of 25% or higher. I've even heard of some at 40%. So something is going wrong. Either they don't know how to properly treat labouring women, or they are inducing too many women who are not ready to give birth, or something. But I would not be comfortable going in to the hospital knowing that I had a 1 in 4 chance of coming out of there with a great wound across my belly for no good reason!
Google some stats on homebirth. As Hoobley mentioned, the research shows that it is just as safe if not safer than a hospital birth. See what you can find from Holland - they have a very high rate of homebirths, and one of the best maternal-infant outcome rates in the world.
A birth is a family event in which medical professionals help, not a medical procedure that the family may watch.
Read through the birth stories, and see for yourself how many mothers have regrets about their hospital births, and how many have regrets about their homebirths.
All the best!
