The Crew Family Promise Experience.
Amy appreciated how Belinda and the OB nurses answered any questions she had and never rushed her prenatal appointments. Amy has had 3 unmedicated hospital births prior to her 4th birth at home. Out of all all four birthing experiences, this home birth was her favorite. Being able to labor at home was very relaxing as she was in active labor for three hours and twenty minutes. After baby Patrick was born, Amy and babe were taken care of extremely well. She could not have asked for a better birthing team!
