Walter Christopher, son of Jaron and Elizabeth Wilson of Paullina, IA, was born 3:09 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 12, in his home, weighing 7 pounds, 4 ounces, and measuring 21 inches. He is the first child in the family.
Certified nurse midwife Belinda Lassen of Promise Community Health Center in Sioux Center provided the prenatal care for the family and attended the home birth.
“We really, really enjoyed working with a midwife. We would use Belinda again,” Elizabeth said. “They were very caring and took the time with us and answered all of our questions. We were very comfortable.”
