Their marketing ploys are birth centers are evil and might harm your child. Had three kids in the birth center and each experience was great.
Sound familiar?
I also had three in the hospital, so I feel like I can make a comparison. Birth center is not for everyone, but they are not evil.
I think experienced midwives can know a LOT more about getting someone through a tough labor than doctors do. Docs show up in the last 5 minutes. Midwives are there virtually every minute of labor.
