President Carter first president born in a hospital

In the early 20th century, babies were mainly born at home. Jimmy Carter was the first president born in a hospital. His mother, Lillian G. Carter, worked as a nurse at the Wise Sanitarium in Georgia. There was a bed available at the sanitarium on the night of Oct. 1, 1942, so the future president was born there. President George H.W. Bush was born at home less than four months before on June 12, 1924. Every president after Carter was born in a hospital.
