~Caleb and Livia found me late in pregnancy but still with time for me to get to know them and their desires for this birth. Their strong faith guided them in their decisions and helped them to have a lovely water birth. 💗Baby Joanna was the 11th blessing for this sweet family. I was happy to be a part of welcoming her into a home filled with so much love. Grateful to have Brittney Wolfe there to assist.

These “afterpains” actually serve an important purpose! They help your uterus shrink back to its original size and can reduce the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. You’re not just nourishing your little one, your body is also actively working to heal and recover while you’re feeding!

After birth, your uterus may contract while nursing in response to the oxytocin released by baby's suckling. They may be stronger for subsequent pregnancies.]

Sweet gift from a special family. The other great gift from this family was their prayers for me when I was sick recently. 🙏❤️

One of the quiet gifts of midwifery is the relationships that grow along the way. When you support a woman through two pregnancies and births, you’re not just her midwife—you become her friend. So saying goodbye at the final postpartum visit is never easy. I’m just grateful I got to be a part of Shelby’s story and welcome Josefina and Jacob into the world. 🤍

I’m so happy for Corbin and Athena on the birth of their first baby, Alister Grimm. They were incredibly diligent about doing all the right things to have a healthy pregnancy and grow a strong baby.

One of my favorite memories was when they read one of my weekly messages about the benefits of fish during pregnancy. Corbin went fishing and proudly brought home his catch to nourish his wife and baby. 🥹 This is just one example of the many things they were committed to doing to stay healthy and low risk.

Athena did an amazing job managing a rather fast six-hour labor for a first-time mom. 💪 By the time I arrived, she was already pushing, and shortly after, sweet Alister arrived healthy, happy, and looking absolutely adorable. 🌟 What a beautiful example of preparation, teamwork, and strength. Thank you to for her excellent assisting skills!

It was a joy-filled celebration when Diamond Blake was born to this beautiful family at home. 💙 His mother, Madison, showed strength and deep knowing as she calmly birthed her third baby. Dad Jesse was a loving, supportive partner who caught his son. Big brother and sister were so excited to wake up to find they had a new brother. All this as grandma and aunt filled the room with even more love watching it all unfold smoothly. It’s truly a blessing to be invited to share these moments with families. So grateful for who is an excellent assistant and I’m happy to have her there for another sacred transformation.

Everyone tells you to stop feeding at night.

To stretch the sleep.
To break the habit.
To teach independence.

But your body tells a different story.

At night, prolactin rises.
Oxytocin flows.
Milk production peaks when the world is quiet.

Your baby wakes not because they’re spoiled
but because biology designed it this way.

In the dark, while you’re half asleep
your body is still listening.

It adjusts.
It responds.
It produces what your baby needs most in that moment.

This isn’t just feeding.
This is regulation.
This is immune support.
This is brain building.
This is safety.

You are tired because you are doing something powerful.

You are showing up in the hours no one sees.
When the house is silent.
When the world is asleep.
When only you and your baby exist.

And that matters more than anyone will ever admit.

Night feeds are not habit.
They are biology.

And you are doing something extraordinary.

Does anyone have colostrum I could use for a family in need?

Just one simple habit—regularly eating eggs during pregnancy—can quietly shape your baby’s future brain health. Eggs are packed with choline, a nutrient that builds healthy brain cells, helps memory, and even supports early attention skills. Science shows many expecting mothers do not get enough choline, sometimes missing this hidden support for their child’s early development.
Researchers found that babies whose mothers got 930 milligrams of choline each day while pregnant processed information faster than those with the usual lower intake. Years later, children whose moms got more choline even scored higher on important memory tests. These studies suggest the brain-building power of choline-rich foods like eggs makes a real difference, especially during pregnancy’s sensitive windows.
If you are expecting, talk with your healthcare provider about ways to boost your choline. Eating eggs, including the yolk, or combining other sources like lean meats, beans, and guided supplementation may help. Taking action today might quietly set up your child for better focus, stronger memory, and a bright road ahead."
