This light and airy room reminds us of its namesake, Carol Crow, the visionary behind the birth center. The natural light floods in, evoking relaxation for all who enter. A tub will be added to this room as we grow. Both of our birth suites have nitrous oxide hook ups and hooks for using the birth swing. We have exercise balls available for use in labor, birth stools and portable TENS units.

Our Martha Room is classic and aptly named after a pioneering doula who worked in Wichita Falls in the early 2000s, paving the way for much change in the local birth climate. We love the fireplace, wood floors and original stained glass windows. Both of our birth suites have nitrous oxide hook ups and hooks for using the birth swing. We have exercise balls available for use in labor, birth stools and portable TENS units.

This large tub is the centerpiece of the Martha Room’s large bathroom. Water is often called “the midwife’s epidural” for it’s proven effect to ease laboring intensity. Waterbirth also helps ease baby’s transition into the world and reduces the woman’s risk of perineal tearing. Mom and baby can then relax after birth and the hard work of labor in an herbal bath used to aid in the healing of Mom’s tissues and baby’s cord. There is also a shower available.

In your private birthing suite you can make yourself comfortable, wear your own clothing, eat when you feel hungry, soak in a tub, and even have a water birth. Your labor will be unhindered by tethering straps and cords since our midwives don’t routinely use IVs (or even saline locks) and your baby is monitored using a doppler, intermittently. You may move around as you please, utilizing our Earth Birth Swing, beautiful (real) bed, birth stool, yoga ball, or home like seating.
