Welcoming New Life: The Birthing Suite at MCH
353 Bundles of Joy Delivered with Care
A Family-Centered Approach to Childbirth in a Serene Environment
At Monadnock Community Hospital, our Birthing Suite is known as the happiest wing of our facility—literally filled with “pride and joy.” Following a complete renovation in 2015, The Birthing Suite has been welcoming newborns to the world in style, with beautifully designed birthing rooms and a comprehensive range of services and support for mothers, babies, and families.
In 2016 alone, we delivered 353 babies in our serene, family-centered space, where partners, siblings, and loved ones are always welcome. Our team strongly encourages and supports skin-to-skin bonding and breastfeeding, recognizing their importance in early childhood development. Whether you prefer a completely natural childbirth experience or require epidural anesthesia, our expert staff is equipped to provide a full range of birthing options, ensuring that each family can safely and comfortably experience the miracle of birth in their own special way.
Our Birthing Suite is more than just a place to give birth; it’s a haven for families, designed to offer the highest level of care in a peaceful, nurturing environment. We prioritize the health and well-being of both mother and child, providing personalized care plans that cater to individual needs and preferences. From prenatal care to postpartum support, we are dedicated to ensuring that every aspect of your birthing experience is positive and memorable.
For expectant parents seeking a tranquil setting with a focus on family-centered care, Monadnock Community Hospital’s Birthing Suite is the ideal choice. Our state-of-the-art facilities, combined with a compassionate and skilled team, create an environment where the journey of childbirth is celebrated and cherished.

[post_content] => Monadnock Community Hospital: Nitrous oxide now available in Peterborough maternity ward
By Dave Anderson Monadnock Ledger-Transcript
Monday, November 4, 2013
(Published in print: Tuesday, November 5, 2013)
For more than 20 years, women giving birth in Canada, western Europe and Australia have had the option of using nitrous oxide to help them cope with pain during labor. But in the United States, where nitrous oxide is frequently used in dental offices, it has not been available in delivery rooms. But that’s about to change, and Monadnock Community Hospital in Peterborough is leading the way, the first hospital in New England and one of just a few in the country that has nitrous oxide equipment in its maternity unit.
“No one treatment is right for everybody,” says Dr. Fletcher Wilson, the chief of obstetrics at MCH. “The more options available, the better off you’ll be. [Nitrous oxide] is used by the majority of the world. Why aren’t we doing it?”
The hospital recently purchased two Pro Nox nitrous oxide delivery systems, which are relatively new to the U.S. market and have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The units, which can be wheeled into a birthing room, include both a mask and a mouthpiece, either of which can be used by the patient to breathe in a 50/50 mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen.

[post_content] => Monadnock Community Hospital: Nitrous oxide now available in Peterborough maternity ward
By Dave Anderson Monadnock Ledger-Transcript
Monday, November 4, 2013
(Published in print: Tuesday, November 5, 2013)
For more than 20 years, women giving birth in Canada, western Europe and Australia have had the option of using nitrous oxide to help them cope with pain during labor. But in the United States, where nitrous oxide is frequently used in dental offices, it has not been available in delivery rooms. But that’s about to change, and Monadnock Community Hospital in Peterborough is leading the way, the first hospital in New England and one of just a few in the country that has nitrous oxide equipment in its maternity unit.
“No one treatment is right for everybody,” says Dr. Fletcher Wilson, the chief of obstetrics at MCH. “The more options available, the better off you’ll be. [Nitrous oxide] is used by the majority of the world. Why aren’t we doing it?”
The hospital recently purchased two Pro Nox nitrous oxide delivery systems, which are relatively new to the U.S. market and have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The units, which can be wheeled into a birthing room, include both a mask and a mouthpiece, either of which can be used by the patient to breathe in a 50/50 mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen.
