[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m expecting my first child and have been looking into birth centers because of the pandemic. I think it will be more calm and less chaotic than a hospital. I’m 37 and have a healthy pregnancy. My husband is 100% against it. He is all in favor of me having a natural birth if I chose to, but wants to be at a hospital if anything goes wrong. The birth center is an hour away from the nearest hospital and he worries it’s way too risky. I feel like I should be able to make this decision but want to respect his decision too. [/quote]

I delivered at Sibley a few years back. It was not chaotic at all. I pushed for 3 hours with just some nurses and when they found meconium in the amniotic fluid, the room was suddenly full of doctors and nurses to make sure the baby was safe. I would take those few minutes of chaos over realizing the baby( or me) needs medical intervention and there was none available. Even with so many people in the room, they were very respectful and stayed quiet and left as soon as they realized that the baby was fine. It had zero negative impact on my experience. [/quote]
