Free Presentation on Midwife Delivery at Marin General Hospital
Register for “The Midwife Way” on April 7th, 6-8 pm
GREENBRAE, CA — When it comes to childbirth, Marin moms have plenty of choices to personalize their experience, and more and more of them are choosing to be delivered by Certified Nurse Midwives. This is a great choice for healthy women with low-risk pregnancies and we are one of the only hospitals in the Bay area to offer access to midwives 24/7. If a medical need arises during labor, our OB hospitalists are also onsite 24/7 and can attend to patients immediately.
On Monday, April 7th, from 6-8 pm, Marin General Hospital will offer “The Midwife Way,” a presentation and Q&A on the benefits of midwifery. The presentation includes an overview of the Marin General Hospital midwife program, a chance to meet their midwives, testimonials from patients who can share their personal experiences and a tour of the maternity unit.
Registration is required for this free event! To register call 1-888-99-MY-MGH (1-888-996-9644) or go to our website.

They offer hydrotherapy, guided relaxation, and therapeutic touch, as well as conventional pain medication, including epidurals and IV narcotics. They also perform deliveries for Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) with a high success rate of more than 70 percent.
