Waterbirth in Kansas City, MO

I love to hear of all of the places allowing waterbirths! Thanks for sharing this, Summer:


Sheri - I got news of your blog from the DONA group here in KC. Here's my story.
Hospital in Kansas City, Mo is doing waterbirths!

My name is Summer Hill and my husband and I are Bradley Teachers in Kansas City. We have two little boys, both born naturally using The Bradley Method. Our youngest son, was just born underwater in February 2005. We were so excited to hear that Research Medical Center in Kansas City was doing waterbirths. It was a wonderful experience. The whole labor was a short 3 1/2 hours long, but very much intense. We labored for two hours at home, mostly on the birthing ball and then came to the hospital where we labored about an hour in the tub, which felt so good, then he was born gently underwater with two pushes!

We were so happy to have the choice of a waterbirth at the hospital. Our midwife group, Midwest Midwifery, was so supportive and wonderful and really supported us through a beautiful experience.

We just wanted to spread the news that waterbirth is available at Research Medial Center in Kansas City!

Thanks and we'll help to spread the news about your blog!
