Homegrown Midwifery

10/27/2025

Wrapped up an amazingly educational and busy weekend at the in Las Cruces where we did hands on training and scenarios to practice the skills we use for the occasional emergency. Big shout out to for their support, Andrea and Avril at B.E.S.T for all of their wisdom and work they put into a thorough and fun event, and NMSU for having us in their space doing our Midwifery weirdness. 🤣

It was refreshing to gather with all my community birthworkers near and far, and learn with them and from their experiences. The amount of stories and laughter filling the room was refreshing to the soul. It was too long since our last gathering! ❤️❤️✨️

Don't I know it!! 🤣 Thanks to all the partners or students for giving me a hand when I obviously look like I need it with all my bags! What can I say, I bring a lot of gear!

It really feels like that. Most of the time I feel like a pack mule!
