A hospital birth story. This is what our birthing model of care could be.

In the link above, a woman is unable to labor at home, because of a known complication. The medical staff at the hospital cares for the women in a respectful, empathetic manner while still providing medical assistance when needed. The baby is birthed safely, mother and father appear to have a experience that they will remember with pride forever.

Thanks to Rixa (of Stand and Deliver, formerly True Face of Birth) for posting the original list of links. Navelgazing Midwife is a amazing blog to read.
