Labor and delivery services at UAMS

Welcome to Labor and Delivery at UAMS. You are about to embark on the most rewarding event of your life--the birth of a healthy, happy new baby. And, by choosing UAMS you will be giving yourself and your baby the absolute best medical care possible. Our world-class health care team looks forward to assisting you in this miracle we call childbirth. 

We know that you want the best for your baby. And if your baby needs special attention, you'll find comfort in knowing that UAMS has a world-class neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) on site to provide the best medical services available to your baby.

Deluxe Birthing Suites 
Care for Mother and Baby
Care for you and your baby is also offered by our family physicians at the Family Medical Center both before and after delivery. Along with your doctor, you can develop a "birth plan" for your labor and delivery. This lets us help you have a safe and happy birth. After delivery we provide check-up visits, shots and care when your baby is sick.

For more information on Family Medical Center care at UAMS, please call 501-686-6560. 

More Labor and Delivery Information
At UAMS, we believe that knowledge is power, so we offer a free Labor and Delivery Unit tour.

We also offer many classes to help you learn about preparing for birth, relaxation during labor and delivery and breastfeeding. If you already have a child or children, we can help prepare your family with our sibling class. You can register for classes individually or can register for our Baby on Board class package. And our classes extend beyond the birth of your baby to include classes on infant and child care.
