With four children now, Mary Ann Morrison feels like a pro at bringing babies into this world. But that wasn’t always the case. Like all new mothers-to-be, she didn’t know what to expect.

“When I had our first, I took a childbirth class and at the end of it, I got to have a tour of the floor,” she says. “It was very comforting to get in there and see the room where we would be giving birth.”

Your support of the Little Miracles Birthing Center at Mercy Health — Lourdes Hospital provides moms with a premier birthing experience.

“My first experience was so great that I kept going back,” Mary Ann says. “Now I’ve had four kids there.”

Over the span of those four deliveries, Mary Ann has witnessed the upgrades you helped provide to a facility that she already loved. Those upgrades improved the experience for the whole family.

“The labor and delivery rooms are big and welcoming, which made the experience less intimidating overall,” she says. “When my last two babies were born, the center had brand new bassinets for the babies.”

Mary Ann is grateful that your gifts help to ensure that growing families like hers have a safe and comfortable environment to welcome their newest members.

“Having a baby is different than being in the hospital from being sick, but you still aren’t home. They have done a great job with that floor to make it feel comfortable and welcoming,” she says. “I cannot imagine having a baby anywhere else.”
