You'll always remember the sound of that first cry, the first time you felt the tiny hand grasp your finger, watching the sleepy eyes open, and gaze into yours. Your baby’s birth is the beginning of your family’s newest story. That’s why the birthing center at Adventist Health Columbia Gorge is called the First Impressions — because your first moments matter.

Preparing for childbirth
We offer a series of classes for expectant mothers and parents to prepare for the birth of their child. Each class focuses on different aspects of the delivery experience, including how to recognize labor, pain management during labor, red flags, reasons to go to the hospital, and what to expect with a vaginal vs. a C-section birth. New infant and parenting information, such as breastfeeding and car seat safety, is also included.
