Austin Area Birthing Center Glass Art
Well known glass artist Milon Townsend from New York has created a special work just for Austin ABC.
He designed and fashioned the glass mother and plaque for our the entryway wall of the prenatal clinic.
The amber colors are quite soothing and the carefully crafted baby in the womb represents 22 years of AABC babies.
Queation: What is the primary difference between going through a Midwife or a Doctor for my delivery? I have the option to either go with a doctor or a midwife and was wondering what the best option would be...
Answer: The main difference is that a midwife is more personal and less expensive. A midwife tends to lean toward a more natural birth experience and many women prefer a more comfortable and dedicated birth setting when having their child.
Hospital care is much more expensive, and the birth delivery setting tends to be more medical. Many women have expressed their desire for a more pleasurable birthing experience with a midwife and appreciate the added personal attention.
Having a personal relationship with our clients rather than treating them as a number is just one of the many things we do better at our birth center at Austin ABC.
