The MUSC Women’s Health comprehensive pregnancy team aims to provide that every woman has the personalized quality care that she deserves. Recently, when a woman whose husband was serving in the military overseas, the MUSC team shared the birth of their child via Facetime.

We're Baby Friendly®! We’re committed to upholding the highest standards of care for your little one, and we have the designation to prove it! Enabling rooming in with your baby and breastfeeding within one hour of birth are just a few aspects of this important initiative by the World Health Organization and UNICEF.
