I’ve heard such wonderful things about The Farm, so I don’t mean to change your mind at all about getting things together financially. I just gave birth at Clark and my husband and I had a great experience. Our nurse only performed checks when I requested them, and pretty much stood back and offered assistance occasionally. We had our doula with us and I delivered with the assistance of our CPN-midwife, Beth Bary. The L&D nurses are wonderfully supportive of natural birthing. The stay in the recovery room was okay, with the ‘required’ seemingly endless checks on blood pressure, etc, but a short 24hrs.
If you can’t get to The Farm, go to Clark! I’d suggest doing a tour first..go hang out on the L&D floor, and see the tiny adorable babies in the nursery.
Best wishes to you!
