Birth can be a pretty empowering experience. This is your time to take charge as you bring brand-new life into the world. Chances are, you don’t want to sit around while other people dictate what your delivery should look like. If you have always pictured yourself having an unmedicated delivery experience, the first thing you need to do is find a center that will prioritize your voice above all others. As a Portland family photographer, I get the chance to connect with parents from every background who have had their ideal birth experience. If you have been looking for the right providers, I would love to tell you why you should consider Hearth and Home Midwifery

Services

Before you commit to Hearth and Home Midwifery, you can schedule a risk-free consultation. During this time, you will get to know all about the center so you can decide if it is right for you. From there, you will start scheduling regular appointments so they can monitor the progression of your delivery. They can take care of everything you need, including routine exams and lab work. Their visits will be unrushed, so they can build up your trust and create a relationship. As you near your due date, they will schedule a home visit so they can be sure your space is prepared for delivery. 

Once your labor begins, your midwife will head to your house with any supplies they might need. If you choose to rent a birthtub, they will get it set up. Throughout delivery, they will be right by your side to give you physical and mental support. They will clean up your space following delivery and will ensure you and your baby begin recovery. All before they leave. Your postpartum appointments will take place at home.
