No hospital north of DNMC operates a birthing room, although many of the Salt Lake-are- a hospitals have rooms within similar opened the past year. The birthing concept began several years ago in California. Considering the problems that can occur in a home delivery, the birthing room concept is simply a safer alternative, said hospital administrator, Dean Holman. Birthing room labor is handled as a family affair with up to four family members or friends allowed in the room during the birth. Birthing room mothers receive no medications, no IVs and no electronic monitoring, although the woman may be moved to a regular delivery room if complications arise endangering the health of the mother or birth of the newborn. The baby is born in the room and not separated from the parents for nursery examination. Unless complications occur, the mother is then released from the hospital within 12 hours, free to take the baby home. While birthing room labor is 40 per cent less expensive than delivery room birth, cost is not the primary factor many families are opting for the concept, according to Mr. Holman. The idea of a natural setting is a major factor in their choice, he said. We have decorated the room similar to that of an average home with fine wood-grai- n furniture, comfortable chairs, a couch, a handsome quilt, and a warm wallpaper on the walls. Only women who appear due for a healthy delivery will be admitted to the birthing room. The couples physician must also approve the choice and the couple must attend the hospital-sponsore- d childhood preparation classes and special birthing room introduction course. Women interested in the birthing room should discuss the birthing room with their physician around the fifth month of the pregnancy. At any time before the delivery, the woman can change and opt for the normal delivery room birth.
