Does anyone have a good recommendation for a birth center or hospital for a water birth? I hear that the the birth center in Wilmington, Delaware is good...has anyone had experience with them?

    Water birth is not allowed in any hospital in the Philadelphia area or the suburbs. 

    You could ask at the Birth Center at Bryn Mawr.

    I believe the birth center in Wilmington allows Water Birth.  I have a couple of friends who delivered there and had a great experience.  The Bryn Mawr Birth center has jacuzzi tubs for laboring, but does not allow birthing in the tub because the tubs don't meet the right size/access specifications.  I'll be delivering at Bryn Mawr, and I have heard nothing but great things about delivering there (i have also had several friends who went there) and I have loved my prenatal care so far (I am 22 weeks)
