Welcome to the world, baby Everly Mae Winter! Born today at 2:30 pm on the way to the birth center (yes, a car birth!), she weighed 7 lb 6 oz and was 20 inches long. Her mama wanted to catch her own baby, and she most certainly did! She is the fourth Wellspring Baby in her family, and her daddy shared a sweet story with me today that I didn’t remember. They came for a consultation at Wellspring during their first pregnancy, but decided to have that baby in the hospital. After that experience, they decided to have their second baby at Wellspring, and now (four babies later!), it feels like we’re family. 🥰 Congratulations, mama A and papa W! 🩷

Welcome to the world, baby Indie Reed! Born at 1:33 am today, she was 7 lbs 6 oz and 20 inches long. She is the second Wellspring Baby in her family, and her rockstar mama very calmly birthed her into the world in the birth tub, surprising the birth team when she very quietly began lifting her from the water as we were putting our gloves on. It was a beautiful, serene birth in the wee morning hours. Congratulations, mama K and papa S! 🩷

Do you remember that little 1 lb 15 oz baby that was born to midwife Ashley last Thanksgiving? Well, we’re so thankful that she is growing and HEALTHY despite her early challenges. She has become a bit of a mascot at Wellspring and loves to see our clients and their kids come in for appointments. Just thought we’d post a little update for those who haven’t seen her since she was posted on our social media last year. This former micropreemie is crushing it! 🩷

Welcome to the world, babies Maria Umi and Irene Izumi! Born at the birth center at 9:38 am and 9:56 am today, they were 6 lb 7 oz and 6 lb 1 oz and both 19 inches long. Their strong mama had baby A in the birth pool and baby B on the bed, where she was born entirely in her sac, what is called an en caul birth. Special thanks to midwife Chris Duffy for assisting today. Congratulations, mama C and papa M! 🩷🩷

Did you know?

Midwife Ashley has always been passionate about training the next generation of midwives. She is the Education Chair for the Association of Texas Midwives as well as an instructor for two of their nine modules. She always has two students training with her at Wellspring as well.

This is student midwife Amanda, who is currently in her primary phase, the third and final phase of her apprenticeship. She is weighing one of our Wellspring babies in this cute crocheted scale bag that midwife Ashley made. And yes, that’s a fish scale the bag is hanging from. Babies love it!
