Happy Graduation Bea! 🧸

Your wide smile & curiosity charmed me today! The arc of hearing the fetal heartbeat, witnessing the first breath and getting a glimpse of their personality is a true gift.

Your Mom was so strong as she birthed you in the Fern room! Your Dad is so smitten too. 💛

Every year on their birthday, this Alma “baby” has visited us and gifted flowers! They are a Reed student interested in International Studies. An impressive youth! We often wonder what these tiny, slick, naked newborns are going to do with their lives, and it is an honor to be remembered 19 years after that umbilical cord was snipped. Thanks for the visit! 💛🥹🎊

This little butterball turkey may look skeptical about having his picture taken, but he was all smiles at his 6 week visit. 💛

Seiji was born swiftly in the water one evening, directly into his Dad’s hands, and he hasn’t slowed down since!

C-sections can be life-saving, but they’re becoming more common than ever — about 32% of all births in the U.S. are now surgical.

At Alma, our approach focuses on balance and support.
In 2024, 15% of our clients planning a birth center birth required a C-section, and so far in 2025, that number has dropped to 13% for those who began labor in our birth center. 🌿

These rates align with World Health Organization goals (10–15%), the ideal range for safe, supported birth.
We also know that C-section rates are higher among women of color, especially Black and Indigenous parents — a reminder of why equitable, person-centered care matters.
