Is anyone planning on delivering at a birth center? This is my first and I have Kaiser so I figured my insurance wouldn’t cover it. I recently found out they do! I am so excited to try and find the right fit for my husband and I to welcome our little boy into the world!

If anyone has birth center stories to share I would love to hear them! Personally I am very confident in my body to birth my son, and don’t have the confidence in medical staff to let us do that as peacefully and naturally as possible. I don’t want to continually be told what to, but would rather relax and trust my body’s instincts and natural tendencies. To their credit, they are trained to do things a very specific way and I’m just not convinced that way suits me.

What are your thoughts?
