Hi ladies, DH and I just moved to the Houston area (Katy) and I'd love to get any recommendations for hospitals that allow alternative birthing techniques that are close to me. I'm interested in being able to use a birthing ball, birthing tub, etc and try for a natural birth. What would be the best hospital/OB to use? TIA!
After 2+ years TTC, 1 miscarriage, & 3 failed IUI's... IVF#1 worked! DD born 2012
2013 FET#1: BFP, but we lost the baby at 12 weeks
2013 FET#2: BFN
2014 FET#3: BFP, but our sweet baby was born sleeping at 33 weeks
IVF#2: BFP! DD born 2015
2017 IVF#3: BFN
2017 IVF#4: BFN
1st Dx = Unexplained IF, 2017 Dx = DOR
Re: Hospitals that allow alternative birthing techniques
Hi Sandy,
The two that I can recommend are St. Lukes (Med Center) and Clear Lake Regional. St. Lukes is closer to you.
All hospitals in this area have birth balls available, squat bars, most have jetted tubs (you can labor in, but not birth in), and have NCB friendly nurses. St Lukes has a team of midwives whom I adore!
Good luck! PM me if you want more information.
