Willow at Medical City Weatherford
A new year has brought a new face into the world! The Labor and Delivery Team at Medical City Weatherford was honored to welcome the hospital’s first baby of 2021 on January 3—baby Willow!
Despite the pandemic, Willow’s mom Adrian said that her delivery experience was a positive one. She offered this advice for pregnant women who are unsure about what to expect during their labor and delivery.
“If you’re afraid of going in there, if you’re going alone or if your birth partner isn’t really prepared, know that the staff and nurses will be there as a really good support system for you,” Adrian says.
