    Are you talking about a birth center?

    My oldest was born in a hospital, but it was such an awful experience, my second was born in a birthing center. So much better on so many levels.

      A birthing center is also a far safer alternative to a home birth. Probably just as safe as a hospital, if not safer due to the staff being more specialized (I’m not sure which has a better safety record in that regard). The point is, medical professionals need to be around just in case.
