Patient story
Special Connection for the Jarvis’
The soldiers of the US Army’s 131st Engineering Company had decided ahead of time; they would all sacrifice their personal internet time for their buddy Kevin, whose wife was expecting their first child. This allowed Kevin, with a little help from the Family Birth Center nurses and the IT folks at Northwestern Medical Center, to experience the birth of his daughter Payton while on duty in Iraq, half a world away.Healthy Beginnings
Our Healthy Beginnings program is designed to improve healthy outcomes for moms and babies. This group class gives you the chance to learn about maternal-child health, connect with other women at similar stages of pregnancy and to meet our OB/GYN provider team.
The class meets on Monday evenings from 6-8 pm in the Family Birth Center’s Conference Room.
What to Expect:
Focused on you and your baby’s health, our goal is to provide a rich learning environment to make your journey through pregnancy easier and more fulfilling. You will hear information on topics like:
• Common discomforts
• Healthy habits for you and your baby
• Understanding the exams & tests
• Care for your newborn
• Your health after giving birth
During the series, you will get a chance to tour our Family Birth Center and get a feel for the environment.
You will also meet all the physicians on our team and have a chance to learn more about them.
We will also connect with lactation consultants for early help with breastfeeding.
Tightly knit care
Our three practice physicians have been delivering bundles of joy in our local community for more than 14 years. Dr. Leonard Tremblay and Dr. Lowrey Sullivan see patients from early stages of pregnancy right through the delivery of their babies at the Northwestern Family Birth Center. A close connection between Northwestern OB/GYN and the Family Birth Center provides tightly coordinated care between the practice and the hospital for a seamless experience.
