Born in the Water at Methodist Hospital in the Twin Cities | Ethan's Birth Story /  by Meredith Westin

September 26th, 2018

Just an hour of arriving at the hospital, she delivered their baby in a fast and supported medication-free water birth. Ethan was bright eyed and so alert after his birth and he locked eyes with his mama as soon as he could.

Welcome to the world, Ethan! We’re so glad you’re here!
