My Birth Story

By Bianca Anderson

I came upon Women’s Birth and Wellness Center when I researched water birth in NC. Its holistic/natural approach to women and birth instantly drew me in. My first child, Brooke, was successfully birthed here October 2015, just as I dreamed: in the water, with a most awesome team, Jessica and Christina, there to usher her in safely.

When I came for my wellness checkup in January 2017, we were welcomed with warm arms. I went back with Ms. Tracey to be weighed, and we began talking of siblings for Brooke. She looked at me and smiled as I said I hoped to see her soon. Then she said “Yes, maybe even at the end of the month!” I paused, but she had turned away and gone on to her next assignment. I never did ask her what she meant by that! Let alone, if she even remembers saying it- all I know is I remembered it and held to seeing them again at the end of the month!

Sure enough, at the month’s end, we found out we were expecting again. Pregnancy wasn’t easy, but it was healthy and without complication. The midwives and nurses are always there to help, and their advice is based on experienced professionalism. Each one knows exactly what they are talking about and doing. They work to make the motherhood journey a strong healthy one.

Finally the time came. I arrived at the birth center to my utter delight to have Jessica as the midwife on duty. I was so excited to have her yet again to help birth our baby. But, she couldn’t stay. Her shift ended and she had to leave about 3 hours into labor. She gave blessings and hugs and introduced our new midwife/nurse team, Lydia and Missy, who would prove to be angels as well.

Lydia was stressless and skillful in her work. A quiet voice in the loud pain. Reassuring me to trust my body and work with it. About two hours later our son Eden was born, healthy and strong. Missy and Lydia took care of my family and me, making sure we were comfortable and well. It was just beautiful to have them there; and on top of it all, Lydia is pregnant and Missy was on Mommy duty herself, as she had to nurse her own baby. Proof of WBWC being a place of real women who help women.

I thank God for Women’s Birth & Wellness Center. From the front desk to the boutique to the birth rooms, to the programs provided, everywhere is the atmosphere of top quality care, and holistic wellness for women. Genuinely kind people who give their best to make sure we are at our best. If one is seeking top quality care for wellness with a holistic approach for pregnancy and birth, Women’s Birth and Wellness Center is the place for you.

I promise you won’t regret it!
