BirthNetwork National advocates Mother-Friendly care, as defined by the Mother-Friendly Childbirth Initiative (MFCI). By making informed choices and having confidence in the process, families can experience safe and satisfying childbirth.

WE BELIEVE...
  • Birth is a normal, healthy process, not an illness or disease.
  • Empowering births can take place in birth centers, hospitals and homes.
  • Women are entitled to complete and accurate information on their full range of options for pregnancy, birth, post-partum and breastfeeding.
  • Women have a right to make health care decisions for themselves and their babies. That right includes Informed Consent as well as Informed Refusal.
