Mary Fiona GraceWhat a wonderful enchanted evening. Mary Fiona Grace has come into our lives forever. This was the most beautiful environment and we have had the most beautiful staff surround us for this event. I won’t forget this. The mood, the smells, how natural this all seemed in comparison to our firstborn’s birth. This is the kismet moment we wanted. I’m so happy, beyond what I can detail in this book, that we had a part, a major part, in bringing our child into this world. This is how it was meant to be. To all the staff here, than you one-thousand times. If we ever have another child, it will be here. I’m tired and I’m in love. This causes me to be a wee bit wordy or poetic. I’m one happy daddy! Thank you again! I have a beautiful daughter, my heart of hearts. . . and you made it special. -Jim E. |

RosemarieMy pregnancy with Rosemarie was mostly difficult because of so much sickness. But during the last couple of months, I felt more alive than ever with the anticipation of her arrival. Baking homemade peanut butter cookies for supper set my labor into motion. Within a short time, we knew that we had to “fly” to the Birth Center – expecting the delivery to go quickly. The timing of everything was perfect! Rosemarie came within ½ hour of getting here. The excitement, intrigue, and adventure soon quieted into an afterglow of romance. Michael, Rosemarie, and I rested throughout the night during a gentle rain outside. All of the struggle of the pregnancy was washed away and my heart is full of joy and beautiful, life-long memories. Thanks for blessing my family’s life. – Kathy C. |

SonnyWe had a short labor – 4 ½ hours and only spent an hour at Birth & Women’s Center before Sonny was born. I delivered on hands and knees and felt so uninhibited and strong to birth my baby. When I held him, he felt so warm and alive. I knew everything was right. Thanks for providing a supportive birth environment. You do good work here. May God bless and guide you as you touch the lives of so many women and families. – ELiza M. |

Good StoryThis birth started very slowly with water breaking but nothing happened. Once things got going though, it went unbelievable quick. We enjoyed the tranquil environment and walking in the park. It was especially nice to be able to let nature run it’s course without lots of invasive devices, exams, etc. After just 8 minutes of pushing, we have a gorgeous healthy baby girl. Cherie seems to have a sixth sense about births as all predictions came true. Thanks to all the staff!! – Laurel O. |
