Exceeded My Expectations

“My second birth was at Bellingham Birth Center and it completely exceeded my expectations. Having had a traumatic hospital birth with my first, birthing at the center was exactly what I needed. The facility is clean and very cozy and the midwives are incredible. My chosen Midwives were always quick to respond, answer all of my questions, and provide the support I would have never have gotten from a hospital setting. Incredible experience 10/10 and I can’t wait to do it again!.”

An Exceptional Birth Center

“My husband and I were blown away with the level of care we received at the Bellingham Birth Center. From the first time we went in at 7 weeks pregnant with our first baby, to our last checkup six weeks after our daughter was born, we received nothing but the highest and best care! Our midwives were incredibly warm, loving, and created such a safe space in their work. Throughout the entire pregnancy and birth we felt heard, informed, and valued in our decision making. We never felt pressured into a single decision, and always felt autonomous over what we decided – something you might have to strongly advocate for in a hospital setting. Having ample time at each appointment offered us the space we needed as first time parents to ask all the questions, get all the information, and just to build a beautiful connection and relationship with our midwives! something you want in the vulnerable place of giving birth ;). And not to mention – labor and delivery for our first baby was the MOST empowering thing I’ve ever done, with the love and support and belief from my husband and midwives, I got to birth my daughter in the tub! Everyone in the room was on the same page, they followed every wish in my birth preferences without question, and kept us and baby safe throughout all of it! And we got to go home just a few hours after giving birth to our sweet girl – something we treasured! If you are still reading this, whether a first time mom or well-established in the realm of giving birth (but looking for a different experience) I highly, highly recommend the Bellingham Birth Center!

A Truly Wonderful Birthing Experience

“I had a truly wonderful birthing experience at Bellingham Birth Center. The midwives were incredibly supportive and knowledgeable every step of the way! I wanted an unmedicated birth but didn’t feel quite comfortable delivering at home. The birth center offered the perfect balance—a calm, home-like environment with the reassurance of being cared for by skilled professionals. The hot tub was a lifesaver when my labor stalled at 9cm, and I especially loved the immediate skin-to-skin contact with my baby girl. I’m so grateful for the care I received here!”

Calm and Confident Presence

“I transferred at 35 weeks pregnant and I’m SO thankful I did. Not only were they amazing providers for the rest of my pregnancy, but they gave me the trust, support, and space I needed to have my dream physiologic birth. The energy in the room was so positive, there was never a moment where I had any doubts and that was due to the calm and confident presence of these women, as well as my doula, Jasmine (Many Moons Birth). They supported my deep trust in the birthing process, and offered wonderful encouragement throughout. Welcoming my baby with them was the most beautiful experience of my life. They allowed everything to happen naturally while still ensuring safety, and I was able to catch my baby which was magical. The hours following the birth were spent talking and laughing and just enjoying the moment and each other’s company until we went home. It was truly one of the best evenings of my life. I was genuinely sad when I reached 6 weeks postpartum and was released from their care. I can’t imagine having another baby with any other team. I feel so blessed that my birth was such a positive thing for me to look back on, and I owe a great deal of that to them.”

Welcoming, Personal and Intimate Setting

“Both births were uniquely beautiful and more than I could have ever dreamed. I felt so much peace, empowerment, excitement, support, and love at each birth. Birthing at the birth center with my amazing husband, midwife, and doula, allowed me to birth in a way that felt natural, peaceful, and completely me. I was able to listen to my body, lean on those around me, and be completely present throughout the entire birthing journey. I wouldn’t trade those experiences for anything. My birth experiences are truly a gift that my husband and I treasure. We couldn’t be more grateful to have two beautiful healthy girls and to know that their lives started out in the most peaceful way surrounded by so much love and care. Thank you Bellingham Birth Center for providing this welcoming, personal and intimate setting… the perfect place to start and continue to grow a family.”

Bellingham Birth Center is Beautiful!

“Bellingham Birth Center is beautiful. The moment I stepped inside I knew it was the place I wanted to be during my son’s birth. I couldn’t have been happier with my choice. Every prenatal visit was both professional and relaxed. I have never had a more comfortable, educational, and supportive health care experience in my life. The day my son was born is etched forever into my memory as one of the greatest in my life thanks to the love and care of my wonderful midwives.”
