[quote=Anonymous]OP check out Premier Birth Center in Chantilly. They are an accredited center and have a transfer plan in place. They also routinely practice emergency drills for commons and uncommon emergencies that could arise (hemmorage, shoulder dystocia, etc). I gave birth to my first there (transfered later in my pregnancy but had been previously with the GW midwives) and had a wonderful and completely safe unmedicated water birth at their birth center. I was the only one there with a midwife, two nurses, and my fouls all 100% dedicated to my and my baby’s care. They are with you until you are discharged so they are able to fully monitor and track you WAY better than random doctors and nurses “popping in” occasionally.

My son took a little longer to start breathing (common with water birth babies because their heads and body hit the air at the same time), and the midwife quickly, calmly, and professionally was able to aspirate and clear his lungs so he could breath easily.

Do your own research and make your own decision. There is a spectrum between a hospital and a home birth - I found the midwives at Premier Birth Center to be the perfect in between for me. Good luck![/quote]
