Dura Mater Midwifery

November is and happens to be the month my premie showed up(3 months early). It’s not a cool club to be a part of but any parent who met their baby in a box and got to take them home eventually knows how important NICU is.

“I remember the first time i saw my mom. I think i was in a fish tank or something.
It seemed like nobody knowed I was there, and it was scary. Then my mom came. I don’t even think I even knowed she was my mom then, but when she held my hand I didn’t feel scared no more. As long as i was there, she never let go.” Tommy Pickles(Rugrats)

Not always a midwife in a life before this one ya girl was working in radiology for the . Patient care and comfort was always my thing and I hope that that shows through now.

I could be wrong but I think I might be Tampa bays only veteran homebirth midwife and with that comes an appreciation for my brothers and sisters. That’s translates into a veteran and active duty discount for care.

When you have a cesarean and want your placenta encapsulated and a cord keep sake and this is all the cord they give you. 🥲

In honor of national midwifery weeks some captures of then and now.

It’s National Midwifery Week! 🫶
Here’s to the baby catchers, the late-night texters, the steady hands, and the hearts that never stop palpating urging your due time and the ones who walk beside you no matter how your babe wants to be born. .
Midwives: we really do it all (and usually barefoot). 😉

I feel like we all had some little inner voice or mantra marching us through the work of labor. I’m trying to collect the best of the best for future families! Let me know what got your mental right and brought your baby to your arms no matter how hard or easy terrifying of blissful your birth was.

It’s been a couple weeks now but it’s not too late to congratulate the one and only on her graduation success!
Being a preceptor is one of my favorite parts of this work. Knowing that I had even a sprinkle of something to do with helping a super qualified Midwife showing up in our community makes me so proud.

From client to student and friend to colleague is wild but like YOOO you did it!

One of these stickers has survived three years of Sanicloth wipe downs and it makes me happy every time I see them.
