Birthing Center Bliss
This week Jaret and I found out that a birthing center opened at the end of last year just 20 minutes away from us. Ever since I was pregnant with Avi, I wished I could give birth in a birthing center, but there has never been one close. So last night we went to check it out, and it could have made me cry because it is everything that I've always wanted. Everything that I dread about being in the hospital is gone, yet it's a place a few buildings away from the hospital with staff trained to deal with medical complications that could arise.
The atmosphere is like a home and was so peaceful and cozy. Jaret said it actually makes him look forward to the event. :) And that's saying quite a bit.
I am so happy and so thankful that we found out about this when we did. I would have been so sad to find that it existed after this little guy was born. I am feeling so blessed that on baby #4 it looks like I'll get to experience birthing in an atmosphere that I've always longed for. Another thing I'm thanking the Lord for.
The living room which was so warm and cozy in person.
The little kitchen for preparing food
A cozy room
The room we'll probably use because it has more space to move around in.

Looks just like a house...kind of neat. I do have a question....do you give birth in that room then? Do they put things down on that comforter or remove it or something?? I can't imagine everyone using the same comforter. Just curious. Maybe you deliver in the tub?? With E I sat in a jacuzi tub in my own room all the way up till I gave birth...then I moved to the bed.
I keep forgetting that you're pregnant! It's terrible. For all the girls that will be around his age, I thank you and Jaret for bringing another little Wieland boy into this world...pretty sure you can't have too many of them. :) I'm so excited to see this little guy!
