Patient Education Guide to Pregnancy and Childbirth | Page 2

At Mount Carmel, each newborn child is a little miracle, which is why we
created the Little Miracles maternity program. Little Miracles surrounds you with care
before, during, and after the birth of your little one. It is fi lled with all the special extras
and personal care that let you relax and enjoy this wonderful time in your life.
Since we’ve been delivering babies for more than 100 years now, the Little Miracles
program at Mount Carmel East, West, and St. Ann’s also includes the exceptional medical
skills, technological expertise, and service excellence for which we’re known.
We think that part of surrounding you with that special care is helping you to be better
informed about your pregnancy, your delivery, and your baby.
Your pregnancy is a time of preparation, anticipation, and, perhaps, some anxiety. Use
this booklet to prepare yourself and your family. It will help you in asking questions of
your doctor or midwife and nurses.
This is one of the most important times in your life, and we want to help remove the
worry from your maternity experience. At Mount Carmel, having a baby is more than a
procedure…it’s a miracle.
