Childbirth can be a hectic experience, especially for first time moms. The amount of information on the internet on childbirth can be daunting, and as a mom, sometimes you wish you knew then what you know now. Asking more questions, seeking alternative hospitals and healthcare providers for your birth, and having extra help with a newborn baby are pieces of information that new moms don’t always have on their mind when planning for a child.

Key Takeaways:

• If I had a do over for my child birth, I would ask questions about everything.
• If I had a do over for my child birth, I would look into alternative hospitals which are sometimes much closer.
• If I had a do over for my child birth, I would have designated an advocate. I was exhausted when I was done with the birth and needed someone for those first nights.

“My first two babies were born in very large, crowded hospitals in Los Angeles. My second two babies were born in a smaller, suburban hospital in Littleton, Colorado. And the difference was night and day.”
