The Women and Family Center at Lutheran Medical Center offers a birth center experience within the safety of the hospital. We provide personalized care that helps to ensure the best possible experience for you and your family. Our goal is to offer you guidance and support before and during your birth experience. And we are here for you even after your baby is born.
What is a low intervention birth?
A low intervention birth allows labor to begin and progress naturally without medical intervention. Holistic pain management is provided through massage, labor support slings and hydrotherapy. We utilize small hand held dopplers to listen to your baby’s heart rate. This allows you increased movement around the room as your labor progresses.
Personalized care
Our beautiful birth suites are spacious and provide a comfortable and relaxing setting for you and your family. From hydrotherapy to alternative methods of pain management, you may customize your birth experience to fit your needs.
Birth Suite amenities include:
- Queen-size beds
- Labor support slings
- Oversized relaxation tubs
- Holistic pain management
- Aromatherapy
- Family-centered care
- Lactation support services
