• I believe that God designed a woman’s body for pregnancy and birth, and that it works.
• I believe that life begins at conception and this child has a mind, spirit, and soul.
• I believe that a child knows who his parents are from the very moments that life began and that parenting does not begin at birth but at conception.
• I believe that proper nutrition during pregnancy, including appropriate nutritional supplements, is vital for the health of the mom and her baby.
• I believe that pregnancy and birth are profound experiences in the life of a mother and her family; and that birth impacts how she feels about herself and how she mothers her family.
• I believe that health care should reflect not only the physical safety of the mother and baby, but also the important and inseparable emotional, social, and spiritual needs and beliefs which are unique to every family.
• I believe that parents are ultimately responsible for their pregnancies, births and children.
• I believe parents have the right and responsibility to become informed and knowledgeable as a couple so that they may share in the decision making of their children’s birth.
• I believe that breastfeeding is God’s perfect design to protect babies from harmful disease and death, and to protect family bonds, particularly between mothers and babies.
