Can I have a water birth in Framingham?

Should I choose a freestanding birth center or a hospital?

That depends on your pregnancy and your preferences — it's a decision to make with your provider. Freestanding birth centers are homelike, typically midwife-led facilities that serve low-risk pregnancies and maintain hospital-transfer plans; hospital labor & delivery units handle all risk levels, with epidurals, surgical backup, and often a NICU on site. Tour both kinds if you can, and confirm capabilities, insurance, and availability directly with each facility.
