🌿 August Babies at Ashland Birth Center 🌿
August brought us many beautiful and unique birth stories. We attended two moms having their third babies—including one mama who had her first birth center birth after two home births, with her two older children meeting their new brother in his very first hour. Another mama welcomed her first daughter in the same room where her two sons were born. We also attended three first-time birthing families, two of whom happened to give birth at the birth center on the same day. And one mama who we've had the privilege of catching nearly a dozen of their family members babies over the years. 🤍
August also reminded us that birth doesn't always go according to plan. A few families needed to adjust their plans along the way because of prolonged labor, breech presentation, or a desire for pain relief medication. We are honored to walk alongside families through those unexpected turns, providing information, support, and respectful care wherever their birth journey leads. We are so grateful for our local hospital's acceptance of the birth center and our clients when needed. They make these difficult transitions as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Every birth is different. Every family has a story. And every baby is deeply loved.
Welcome, August babies! We are so grateful we got to be part of your beginnings. 🌿
