This morning I had the honor of walking through the doors of the brand new Morning Star Birth Center in St. Louis Park ( and just moments after the first Morning Star baby left the building!). They had their first birth this morning around 5:30.
You know what, 2010 is going to be an amazing year for birthing women in the Twin Cities. With two birth center options: Morning Star and Health Foundations, along with the myriad of home birth midwives we have here...there's no reason women can't have the births they want.
For more information on natural birth, birth centers, and for everything mama/baby, be sure to check out the MN Baby Expo April 10-11 at the Mpls Convention Center. My Healthy Beginning will be there, among over 250 other awesome exhibitors and sponsors. You'll find everything from green parenting to mama/baby products you need to over 75 expert speakers throughout the weekend. With door prizes and activities throughout the weekend, there's something for every family.
Check out the great plug we got here!


Yippee! What I wouldn't have paid to have a birth center 6 years ago!!! Oh I am thrilled!!!

How can I find more info on the St. Louis Park center? It seems the only way is to call their number?

I am so excited about the new birth centers in the Twin Cities! I am a homebirther myself, but am so happy that this option is finally available here. Yay!
