We are incredibly proud to share that Huntington Hospital has officially been designated Baby-Friendly by Baby-Friendly USA. ✨

This global gold standard recognizes maternity care that prioritizes the mother-baby dyad, bonding, informed feeding support, and evidence-based practice.

This achievement reflects the dedication and collaboration of our amazing Labor & Delivery and Maternity teams, whose work makes this level of care possible every single day.

For midwives, this designation reflects so much of what we believe in and protect every day:
• uninterrupted skin-to-skin
• protecting the golden hour
• strong breastfeeding support
• informed, family-centered care

We are honored to care for families in a place that prioritizes bonding, physiology, and compassionate, evidence-based care from the very beginning. 🤱🤱🏾🤱🏻👶🏾👶🏼🍼💛

This year brings a rare alignment as the Lunar New Year and Ramadan begin at the same time — two traditions rooted in the lunar cycle and centered on reflection, family, generosity, and new beginnings.

For centuries, women’s health, fertility, pregnancy, and birth have been closely connected to the rhythms of the moon. As midwives, we feel especially connected to this shared season of renewal, hope, and fresh starts.

Wishing all who celebrate a joyful Lunar New Year and a blessed Ramadan.
Ramadan Mubarak 🌙

✨ Huntington Midwifery — 2025, Wrapped ✨

In 2025, we were honored to care for families through birth and beyond — providing midwife-led care across the lifespan, including annual exams, contraception, GYN visits, menopause care, and helping adolescents and teens learn about their bodies and health.

190 births.
Every one counted.
Every one important. 🤍

Behind every number is a family. Behind every birth is a story. Vaginal births, VBACs, and cesareans alike — each one deserves respect, support, and to be fully counted.

To our Huntington Midwifery families: thank you for trusting us with your care — in moments of excitement, uncertainty, strength, and growth. We are deeply grateful to walk alongside you. ✨

As we welcome a new year, we wish you health, peace, and continued support in every season of life. 💫 Happy New Year from all of us at Huntington Midwifery! 🥂🎉

So glad Brian and Matt found their way to us when their plans suddenly shifted. Our team was honored to step in during the last-minute change, support their surrogate, and help welcome their beautiful baby boy.

Even more meaningful — this was Huntington Hospital’s first post-law surrogacy family. What an honor to be part of their journey. 74e12b8a-9fb5-4af5-a402-fc9391cdb1cb.png✨

🌟✨ Happy Diwali from Huntington Midwives! ✨🌟

Today, millions of people around the world are celebrating Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights — a joyful holiday that symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance.

🪔 What is Diwali?
Diwali is one of the most important festivals in India and for Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and some Buddhists around the world. Families celebrate by lighting oil lamps or candles (called diyas), decorating their homes with colorful rangoli, sharing sweets, exchanging gifts, and coming together in gratitude and love.

💜 Why we celebrate at Huntington Midwives:
We honor the diverse traditions and faiths that make our community so vibrant. Diwali reminds us of the light we each carry — the same light we strive to nurture in every birth, every visit, and every act of care.

Wishing all who celebrate a bright, peaceful, and love-filled Diwali!
May your homes and hearts be filled with joy, warmth, and new beginnings. 🌼

🕯 October 15 • Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day 🕯

Today, we join families and communities around the world in honoring the lives of babies lost to miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS, ectopic pregnancy, termination for medical reasons, and infant death.

As midwives, we have the privilege of supporting families through some of life’s most profound moments — both joyful and heartbreaking. There are times when we find ourselves holding space for unimaginable loss, searching for the right words to offer comfort and support. We carry these families and their stories in our hearts always. 💗💙

To all the parents and families who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss — your babies are remembered. Your grief is valid. You are not alone.
