Pregnancy and childbirth are some of life’s biggest moments. It’s
natural to feel both excited and anxious during this time, but rest assured
that you are not in this alone. Our
Birthing Center at Myrtue Medical Center provides mothers and families with the support, education, and assistance
they need to feel confident in their labor and delivery plans.

When the big day arrives, patients are given a comfortable, spacious room
to deliver their baby to help start forming a bond with the newest member
of the family once he/she arrives. Most likely, you will stay in this
room from the moment you arrive in labor to the day you are ready to leave
with your new little bundle of joy. A team of providers and nurses are
ready to deliver family-centered care, and will be there to help you with
whatever you need.
Our staff of nurses are known for providing exceptional, dedicated care
to each patient. They will know your name and will strive to provide you
with a truly personalized birthing experience.

Additional Resource
Count the Kicks is an organization whose goal is to educate expectant parents about the
importance of tracking baby movements during pregnancy. Once you reach
the third trimester, it is very important to start paying attention to
the movements of your little one. Knowing what’s normal for your
baby helps you notice when a possible change in their movements occur.
Count kicks every day -- preferably at the same time.
Time how long it takes your baby to get to 10 movements.
After a few days, you will begin to see a pattern for your baby.
Alert Myrtue’s Birthing Center or your maternity provider immediately
if a change in movement occurs (this may be the earliest or only sign
that your baby needs medical attention).
