Doctors?!/Hospitals??/midwives??/birthing centers ??

Question

I have no idea what my options are and this is my first pregnancy, I am 7 weeks. Most people I know just have their babies in hospitals, but a friend of mine just had her baby at a birthing center. 
Does anyone here have experiences to share or opinions on what is better?

Answer

Hospital with my ob on call for delivery, ended with complications so glad I was at a medical facility

Answer

this is just my opinion, but if the pregnancy is a complication free one I like birthing centers better. I had my son in a hospital and did not have a good birth experience  (I know every hospital is different) but I like a more natural approach 😊

Answer

I have chronic health problems so we all feel more comfortable with me delivering at a hospital.

Answer

my first 2 were in a hospital with a dr. my 3rd was with a midwife at a birthcenter. I had a much better birth at the birthcenter.  I found the midwives much more caring and I was much more relaxed too.

Answer

If you're low risk, home birth may also be an option!
