At Birthify, we believe every family deserves a better, more empowering experience when welcoming their baby into the world. That’s why we set out to revolutionize how families prepare for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum—and the results from our most recent group of Birthify families show just how powerful this transformation can be.
From reducing unnecessary interventions to creating a culture of confidence and calm, here’s how our families are rewriting the script for modern maternity care.
Defying the Odds: A New Standard for Birth
When families come to Birthify, they often share concerns we hear all too often:
- “I don’t want to be pressured into unnecessary interventions.”
- “I’m nervous about being induced early.”
- “I just want to feel prepared and confident, no matter how my birth unfolds.”
For one group of families, we tackled these concerns head-on—and their outcomes speak volumes.
Only 5% C-Section Rate
The national C-section average in the U.S. is a staggering 32.9%, but for our families, it was a remarkable 5%. And here’s the kicker: the one C-section in our group was a maternal choice, not due to medical necessity.
That’s an 84.8% reduction compared to the national average, demonstrating the life-changing impact of informed decision-making and continuous support.
One Induction, One Powerful Choice
Nearly all hospital-birth clients in this group were advised to schedule inductions at 39 weeks—without medical necessity. This practice is heavily influenced by the widely debunked Arrive Trial, which has led to a surge in early inductions.
Yet only one family chose induction, waiting until 41 weeks and 5 days to let nature take its course. This isn’t just about declining interventions—it’s about empowering families to trust their instincts and make choices based on what feels right for them.

Breaking the Intervention Cycle
Routine vaginal exams? Membrane sweeps? Not here. Nearly every family declined these common practices prior to labor, avoiding unnecessary discomfort and potential risks.
Where Confidence Meets Care
Birthify families didn’t just achieve incredible outcomes—they felt the difference. Across the board, families rated their experience as 9s and 10s for:
- Feeling prepared: “I knew what to expect, and it gave me peace of mind.”
- Feeling empowered: “Birthify helped me make decisions with confidence.”
- Having a positive experience overall: “This was everything I needed—and more.”
This aligns with the findings of the 2017 Cochrane review, which revealed that continuous support during labor leads to fewer C-sections, fewer interventions, and more positive birth experiences.
Even more exciting? Our virtual approach mirrors the outcomes of platforms like Maven Clinic, which reports a 20% reduction in C-section rates among their clients receiving virtual doula care. Birthify’s results show that whether in-person or online, tailored, evidence-based support makes all the difference.
Reclaiming Birth Stories
This group of Birthify families didn’t just resist unnecessary interventions—they redefined what it means to approach birth with knowledge, confidence, and unwavering support.
- Birth settings spanned birth centers, homebirths, and hospitals. No matter where or how families chose to give birth, they had the tools to advocate for their needs.
- Preparedness replaced fear. Families felt equipped to navigate labor, delivery, and postpartum without being overwhelmed by what-ifs.
Birthify isn’t just about preparing for birth—it’s about reclaiming birth stories.
The Future of Birthify
These results fuel our mission to make empowering, evidence-based care accessible to every family. At Birthify, we’re proving that modern maternity care can be personalized, transformative, and effective—all without breaking the bank.
