Why would anyone choose the hospital when there's this?

Ah, Andaluz Waterbirth Center. The existence of this place makes me want to move to Oregon.

Imagine this.

All-organic kitchen, where midwives prepare delicious foods for you to enjoy at any time during your stay.

Environment where an absolutely non-interventionist attitude rules. I've seen a DVD of births there--they look almost unassisted.

Waterbirth is the norm.

Resort-like atmosphere.

Private insurance and Medicaid (YES! Medicaid!) pay all expenses.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
