Physiologic (Natural) Birth

Natural birth

Natural birth means something different to every individual.  We encourage you to explore your concept of natural birth with us.

Benefits of physiologic birth

Babies benefit from uninterrupted skin-to-skin contact and baby’s full exposure to the mother’s microbiome.

Moms benefit from being the driver and center of the birth.

This means she does not have to negotiate and her needs and desires are respected and supported.  When she chooses homebirth, she does not have to leave her home, which often results in a smoother transition to the postpartum period.

Partners benefit from having the option to take an active role in the birthing process.

The Family as a whole benefits from a smoother transition due to non-separation in early days following the birth.
