Postpartum visit this morning! I am going to check on mom and baby to give them both some TLC. At postpartum visits midwives make sure mom and baby are both healthy and recovering well. We offer heart, hearing and metabolic screenings for baby. We talk about all the stuff; mood swings, tenderness, pain, exhaustion, overwhelm, nursing, healing, bleeding, fussy baby, nutrition, hydration, rest...postpartum is the fourth trimester and mamas and babies still need to be tenderly cared for and attended to.
🤎I am here for you and your family even after baby has safely arrived!

It was a great night for a miracle! "Such a big miracle in such a tiny baby. Big things have small beginnings. A baby is God's opinion that life should go on." ~Carl Sandberg

This post discussed the evidence for active management of the placenta. How does it compare to expectant management and is it safer? What are the options available within active management?

No need for artificial warmers when babies can have something so much better, human touch from mom and dad. The first golden hourS baby should be skin to skin with mom to help with regulating their body, bonding, breastfeeding and mom's postpartum recovery. Babies are the most alert for the first 3 hours after birth, so giving them ample opportunity to nuzzle and nurse is vital to establishing a good beginning to the breastfeeding journey. Skin to skin also increases oxytocin (love hormone) which is beneficial to not only breastfeeding success but also helps reduce mom's bleeding. Once baby is getting sleepy, dad can take over skin to skin while mom gets some TLC from her midwives. It's a beautiful circle of love 🤍🤍🤍

Heal the body to help raise iron absorption. For low iron I recommend blood builders with cofactors, yellow dock, probiotics, magnesium, chlorophyll, apple cider vinegar along with daily walks, deep breathing and stretches and/or massage/chiropractor. Also, wholesome and nutritious food is a must.

"However much we know about birth in general, we know nothing about a particular birth. We must let it unfold with its own uniqueness." Elizabeth Noble

Calm, quiet and confident 🤍 This mama stayed strong and kept believing hour upon hour until her beautiful daughter was placed in her arms. Her support people were unwaveringly by her side for every contraction, every breath, every decision. You are blessed and so loved baby Saylor 🤍 Welcome!

6 week postpartum visit! Sweet baby girl with dark fuzzy hair and chubby cherub cheeks weighed 11 # 14oz. 🎀

I am blessed! Midwifery is a calling of the heart 💗 Happy to be back with my families. Midwifery has a whole new meaning to me now. One thing I have realized is that more is not always better and busy does not equal success. In order to serve my own family and birthing families well, I will be taking fewer clients each month. Please call early and we can talk about your dreams and goals for your pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
