Skin to skin is important for the other parent too! It is a wonderful way to bond. Even siblings can do skin to skin. It is not only bonding but also regulating for the baby. Ideally, the birthing parent should do skin to skin for the first hour which also helps initiate the first feeding.

Not every birth looks the same and not every setting is right for every pregnancy.

Birth center care is an excellent option for people who:
❤️ Have a low-risk pregnancy
❤️ Want fewer routine interventions
❤️ Value informed choice and shared decision-making
❤️ Prefer a calm, home-like environment with medical oversight

At Twin Cities Birth Center + Women's Health Clinic safety begins with appropriate screening and continues through personalized, one-on-one care with experienced midwives.

Choosing the right place to give birth is about alignment, trust, and informed choice.
