Freestanding birth centers specialize in providing care to low-risk women in pregnancy. This means that waterbirth is an option for everyone. We do not have restrictions. It is a person's preference!

This week is Birth Center Week! Twin Cities Birth Center + Women's Health Clinic (originally Health Foundations) opened in February of 2010. We were the first birth center to open in the Twin Cities. TCBC is woman owned and run, serving hundreds of families each year. We would love to hear your memories of the birth center in the comments!

Mama Monday: Skin to skin contact after birth and the days following has a lot of wonderful benefits such as regulating the baby's body temperature, heart rate, and breathing. Another beautiful benefit is that it reduces the stress hormones of the baby and parent.

The cutest little foot with a fully emptied umbilical cord just behind it. At Twin Cities Birth Center + Women's Health Clinic there is not a rush to cut the cord. We want all of that important blood to get to your baby. We wait until it is white and then it is up to you when the cord is cut. Some people choose to have it done right away after the pulsing is finished while others want to wait an hour or two longer. It is your birth, your way!

Is it a mocktail? NO! But it sure looks and tastes like one! This is The Fresh Test! Twin Cities Birth Center + Women's Health Clinic has this option for the glucose test. It is very popular with our clients. People tend to feel less nauseous with this option versus the traditional glucose drink.

Mama Monday: Contractions aren’t just something that feels uncomfortable. They have a lot of purpose! They help rotate and position your baby for birth as well as pushing them down. One of the best tips for labor is to relax every muscle during your waves so that the uterus can use all of that energy.

The newborn exam is a fun and special moment for parents to be a part of. That is why we do this in the bed with you versus a area far from where you are resting. TCBC wants you to be a part of all care being provided to your new baby.
