Come and join us at breakfast for open discussion on birth experiences. Some birth experiences are wonderful, and others can bring unexpected outcomes. Ultimately, we want a healthy baby and mama.

Some experiences need to be discussed with peers or your group leader. This is a free, safe, judgement free space for pregnant and postpartum women to come share their birth stories or to just hear others. You may bring a support person with you, or you may come by yourself. Either way, we are here for you! Everyone has a different outlook and experience when it comes to labor, delivery, birth and postpartum. Sometimes it is just helpful to talk amongst others that have experienced similar situations. This helps ease our mind, connect with others, and can help improve our mental health.

A registered nurse from the St. Elizabeth's Women and Infants department leads the discussion. Additional members of the healthcare team such as physicians, anesthesia, and lactation specialist are invited. You will be contacted via email the week prior to the date for confirmation on attending and the specific meeting location. All group sessions are held at HSHS St. Elizabeth's hospital. Please enter through the main hospital entrance.
