	Birthing Center - Birthing Centers - An Alternative to Hospital Deliveries - Labor / Birth - Adoption, Parent Profiles
		When choosing a birthing center, ensure that it is certified by the appropriate governing medical bodies so that you know that there will be qualified staff to take care of you and your baby.
		Although it isn't something you might want to consider, ensure that the birthing center is close to a regular hospital just in case any unforeseen complications arise during labor and delivery, and what the procedure is for transferring women in labor should this happen.
		Birthing centers usually welcome mothers who want to have natural child birth, and those who choose to breast feed and are experienced to help you if this is the kind of birth you desire.

	Birthing center - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A birthing center or centre is a healthcare facility, staffed by nurse-midwives, midwives and/or obstetricians, for mothers in labor, who may be assisted by doulas and coaches.
		Free-standing birth centers still require hospital backup where there are complications.
		Most birth centres are now being run solely by midwives, with obstetric back-up only used when there are complications.

		A woman who's giving birth to multiples, who has certain medical conditions such as gestational diabetes or high blood pressure, or whose baby is in the breech position would be considered higher risk and should not deliver in a birth center.
		Birth centers typically do have medical equipment available, including intravenous lines and fluids, oxygen for the mother and the infant, infant resuscitators, infant warmers, local anesthesia to repair tears and episiotomies (although these are seldom performed), and oxytocin to control postpartum bleeding.
		Birth centers may be located in residential areas and generally include amenities such as private rooms with soft lighting, showers, and whirlpool tubs.
