Most hospital births in the U.S. happen with people lying on their backs — but research shows upright and side-lying positions can make labor more efficient and may even reduce the chance of a C-section.

Want to view the research? Check out the full Evidence Based Birth® article on birthing positions here:

Knowledge is power — and movement in labor matters! 💡

As a midwife, I not only witness babies being born; I witness parents being born, too. Every birth is a transformation, and every mother carries a new strength into the world with her child. 🤎

Twice this week, I watched the power of community unfold — two new mothers struggling to feed their babies, and two others stepping up to share their milk without a second thought.

It’s moments like these that remind me: motherhood was never meant to be done alone. It takes a village — not just to raise a child, but to raise a mother, too.

So thankful to be part of a community that not only believes this but truly embodies this. 🤍

— Get to know the Rooted In Love team —

Alongside Moira work two incredible nurses!

Heather Durney (BSN, RN) is a mom to six beautiful children. After her fifth child was born, Heather fulfilled her dream of becoming a nurse. She began working in emergency and intensive care, growing her skills in the midst of critical situations. Before becoming a nurse, she was a certified doula and knew her heart belonged in birth work. Now, as a nurse for Rooted In Love Midwifery, Heather is able to help women feel safe and heard while achieving the births they desire.

Rivka Levin (BSN, RN) began her midwifery training in 2006 after working as a nurse in internal medicine and ICU. After graduating, she worked as a hospital midwife for six years in Israel, where she was born and raised. Since moving to the US, she has worked as a nurse in research, infertility, and labor and delivery, eventually returning to the midwifery model of care. Rivka was introduced to home birth by a professor and she quickly came to love the holistic approach— so much so that she chose to give birth to her own children at home.

Together, these three birth professionals bring many years of experience— professionally, and personally through their own birthing and mothering journeys!
