FAMILY INVOLVEMENT

Home-visiting prenatal care gives your partner, friends or family the opportunity to be involved in your maternity care if you so desire. Prenatal care can become a special family ritual. Everyone gets to know the midwife building rapport and trust for the time of labor and birthing.

Homebirth allows immediate contact between family members.

Counting fingers and toes is a universal practice among humans and a good way to get to know your new brother.
