Who’s Welcome in Your Birth Space?

At Alabama Birth Center, you choose who’s by your side. 💕
Your birth space is sacred & it should be filled with the people who make you feel safe, supported, and loved.

Whether that’s your partner, a doula, your mom, or a close friend — we honor your choices and help create a calm, comforting environment where you can focus on what matters most: welcoming your baby.

We are SO proud to share that our founder & Executive Director, Dr. Yashica Robinson, is featured in Unbearable: Five Women and the Perils of Pregnancy in America by Irin Carmon — a powerful new book that follows five women, each with a unique story of navigating pregnancy, birth, and the systems meant to support them.

Dr. Robinson is one of the five, and her story highlights her tireless advocacy for safe, low-risk out-of-hospital birth, and her unwavering commitment to reproductive and birth justice here in Alabama.

We’re also honored that our clinic manager, Elisabeth, and a former Alabama Birth Center patient are also included — representing the real families and providers working every day to make respectful, empowering birth care accessible to all.

This book doesn’t just expose the challenges, it amplifies the people creating change. 🌿

💜 What Is a Midwife? 💜

A midwife is a trained healthcare professional who provides care, education, and support throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. 🌿

Midwives believe that birth is a natural, powerful process, not something that needs to be managed like an illness, but something to be supported.

At Alabama Birth Center, our midwives partner with you through every step of your journey, offering medical expertise, emotional care, and a calm, nurturing presence.

✨ Midwifery care is where science and compassion meet.

Trust the Wisdom Within You, Your body was designed for this. 💗

Birth isn’t about control — it’s about trust. Each breath, each contraction, each moment brings you and your baby closer together.

At Alabama Birth Center, we believe in honoring that wisdom — supporting you as you listen, breathe, and let your body lead the way.

✨ Your body knows what to do.

At Alabama Birth Center, every story reminds us why we do what we do. 🌿

The love, trust, and connection that form between our families and care team are what make birth here so special.

We’re so honored to walk alongside families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond. 💛

When the big day arrives, having a few familiar comforts can make all the difference. 💕

When you birth at ABC you go home 4-8 hours after baby is born, so you don't need to bring a whole lot!

Here are a few of our favorite things to include in your birth bag:
🍼 A going-home outfit (for you and baby!)
🛏️ A cozy blanket or pillow from home
🎶 Your phone charger + a playlist that keeps you calm
🍎 Snacks + drinks (for both you and your support person)
👕 A change of clothes for your partner

Your birth space should feel like your own — comfortable, calm, and filled with things that bring you peace. 🌿

💚 Three Ways to Support Your Partner in Labor

Labor is a team experience. Whether you’re a partner, friend, or loved one — your presence makes a powerful difference.

Here are three simple but meaningful ways to show up:
✨ Be Present: Sometimes just your calm energy is the best support.
🤲 Offer Comfort: Massage, cool cloths, words of encouragement, or simply holding hands.
🗣️ Advocate Together: Help communicate preferences, ask questions, and remind her she’s doing an amazing job.

At Alabama Birth Center, we believe that birth is stronger when it’s shared — with love, trust, and teamwork. 🌿

🌿 Happy National Midwifery Week! 🌿

Alabama Birth Center celebrates midwives—and our amazing student midwives—this week! Midwives provide whole-person, respectful care across the lifespan—from pregnancy and birth to postpartum and beyond—in homes, hospitals, clinics, and birth centers.

This year’s theme, “Midwives at every table: practice, policy, and research,” reminds us how essential midwives are in shaping care that centers families and communities. 💜

At Alabama Birth Center, Tracie and Wendy are the faces you see during your appointments—and most recently, our phenomenal student midwife, Mariah! We’re proud to support their work and to set the stage for training even more midwives right here in our community.

Research shows that people who choose birth centers are less likely to face unnecessary interventions during labor and birth. 🌸💜

At Alabama Birth Center, we believe in evidence-based care that honors your body, your baby, and your choices. Because birth works best when it’s supported—not interfered with.
