Mother-Baby Care

At Lawrence General Hospital, we are privileged to care for new moms and their babies. Because of this, we go to great lengths to give families the childbirth experiences they wish to have—with as much, or as little, medical support as they desire.

We are proud of the fact that we have one of the lowest caesarean rates in Massachusetts. However, not all pregnancies always go as planned. You can rest assured that our teams are equipped for any possible outcome and ready to respond to developing medical needs at a moment’s notice.

• Expertise at handling high-risk pregnancies
• Flexible and supportive childbirth options
• Access to doula services through a partnership with Greater Lawrence Family Health Center
• Access to lactation consultants
• A bilingual support line, available seven days a week
• Services for post-partum depression
• Share — a pregnancy and infant loss support group

For more information about the care that new mothers and newborns receive at Lawrence General, please call 978-683-4000 at your convenience.

Elective Induction Instructions
Your provider has scheduled an elective induction of labor for you. We are happy you chose Lawrence General Hospital to provide your care during this exciting time.  For us to provide safe, effective care to all our patients, we ask that you call our Labor and Delivery unit on the morning of your elective induction prior to leaving home.

Sometimes, we have many patients in labor and need to reschedule elective procedures. If we need to do this, we will reschedule you while you are on the phone. We will also let your provider know. 

We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to caring for you and your family.

Thank you,
Lawrence General Hospital’s Labor and Delivery team
