Please don't be timing contractions that are more then 10 minutes apart. GO TO SLEEP!!! Missing that first night of sleep when you think labor is starting is so detrimental to getting the job done.

When you are being cared for by a midwife you are getting midwifery maternity care… when you are with an obstetrician you are getting obstetric maternity care. The two are different… all women need a midwife and some also need an obstetrician.

Obstetricians don’t provide midwifery care and then obstetric care on top, they only give obstetric care. It’s not about competition it’s about understanding that we are equal but different.

We each have different skills and different roles… you can’t replace one with the other and expect the same care.

If you are reading this and have interpreted it as ‘anti-obstetrics’, you’re reading it with your own personal assumptions, you haven’t read what I said, you’ve read what you think I said.

I’m not anti-obstetrician… I’m just stating the facts that midwifery care and obstetric care are different and neither can fully replace the other. We need each other to provide a full scope of care to some women, but not all women.

All women need a midwife, some also need an obstetrician

I may have thought these were Frida peri bottles at first glance.

Nope. Crochet hooks.

A midwifey front seat. Headed home from back to back births and one of the families sent me home with some goodies…and a placenta for encapsulation. I’ll spare you the view of the back seat. Things everywhere.

Haven’t shared a photo of a new baby in quite a while. This little guy joined us last night. Happy birthday!

One of my sisters is pregnant and appointments at her home when I’m visiting are so convenient, especially with a toddler running around.

One of my midwifery packages includes all home visits if clients are looking for really convenient care.
