My spell checker didn't kick it out, so I guess it's good.
Hospitals have birthing rooms in the maternity ward.
Military Ships have "berthing" for crew.
Both places have people coming out of very small places.
LOL

Yes. It can be used as both a noun and a verb.
Examples:
Did you witness the birthing? (noun)
