Choosing the hospital that is right for you:

12/4/2015

Planning your birth?
One of your most important decisions will be WHERE you choose to have your baby.
If you choose a hospital, you have SEVEN different options here in Birmingham.

So how to decide?

Well, what are you looking for?
Do you want to labor in the tub or in the shower? Do you want your hospital to supply you with a birth ball or peanut ball? Do you want to have the option to push using a squat bar? Do you want access to wireless monitoring so you can have freedom to move around the room, and even down the halls, while you labor?

To help you make this important decision we have created a chart comparing available options. We hope this will be an EASY way for you to compare hospitals and use this information to inform your decision.

Questions? Don't hesitate to contact us, we would be happy to help!

Grandview is THE new premiere hospital. It's more "boutique" medicine than anything else you will find in this city. They truly focus on the experience of the patient and it absolutely shows. Soon, everyone will be Waiting in line to deliver there! I can't wait to have my third there!!

My husband and I are expecting our first child, and we're on the lookout for a good hospital we can go for the delivery. Your article had some great tips for choosing a place like this, and I liked how you said to consider the kind of comfort amenities you'll need. I know I want birth stools and a breast feeding support group, so I'll keep this in mind when choosing the hospital best for my birth.

Choosing the right hospital for your birth is indeed a significant decision. It's great to see that you provide a chart comparing the options available in Birmingham, which can make it easier for expectant parents to assess their choices. Having access to various facilities like tubs, showers, birth balls, and squat bars can greatly enhance the birthing experience. Additionally, wireless monitoring allows freedom of movement during labor. Your willingness to assist and answer questions demonstrates your commitment to supporting families in making informed decisions. Keep up the valuable work!
