Let me tell you what continuity of care actually costs a midwife… and I mean that in the best possible way. 🤍
My social life is planned in pencil. ✏️
Every commitment I make comes with a silent disclaimer: I will be there… unless a baby is coming.
Because when labor starts, nothing else matters. 👶
That is not a sacrifice. That is the job I chose and the calling I love.
I have also developed what my family generously calls a superpower. 🦸♀️
I can fall asleep anywhere, wake up at 2am to a ringing phone 📞, assess a laboring mother clearly and completely, decide she has a few more hours… and be back asleep before my head hits the pillow again.
This is what it looks like when a provider is truly committed to you.
Not a shift.
Not a rotation.
One midwife.
Your midwife. Every time.
That is what the evidence supports. 📚
That is what families deserve. 🤍
