FREE PREGNANCY CHALLENGE: say bye-bye to harsh chemicals & toxins.
Congrats on your pregnancy and considering a birth center!
They’re ideal if you’re seeking a natural childbirth experience, so let’s find a local birth center near you.
I went down a long road when deciding between a hospital and a birth center. During my first pregnancy, I switched care/providers three times. I’m here to help and hope this doesn’t happen to you (who has enough to think about).
Here are things to consider when choosing a birth center:
- Care
- Cost
- Accreditation
- Location
- Reviews
The best advice I can give: narrow down to a few and then plan a visit to tour and meet the midwives. The earlier the better.
In the end I went with a freestanding birth center. It was an AABC-established birth center and CABC-accredited. All the midwives were CNMs (certified nurse midwives). It was an incredible experience for me.
