Thankful does even begin to describe it…
I’m beyond grateful for the opportunity, ability, and capacity to have served each and every one of you.

I’m thankful for all that this ‘a woman who is with the mother (midwife)’ is and has taught me and the lessons that lie ahead.

Abundant Blessings Midwifery 2021 statistics!

Why do I share? I love stats, I love numbers, and I love evidence! Also, I’m proud of them. 🤓

The main reason I share these numbers is to continue to spread far and wide the safety of midwifery care and birthing at home for low risk pregnancies. Midwives truly are improving birth outcomes! These statistics also hold me accountable to my community, my clients, and my limitations on my license as a health care provider.

What these numbers don’t show is the unmeasurable strength, determination, grit and emotion behind them. Each one of these numbers holds a beautiful story.

What I learned vs last year:
⭐️You all still LOVE water birth
⭐️Even fewer requests for vaginal exams
⭐️9% cesarean rate vs our National average of 32%

2021 you were great! Cheers to 2022! 🎉

What other statistics would you be curious in seeing???

Clients become friends, but it’s extra special when an already friend becomes a client 💕 Thank you for sharing your story!

This friend turned midwife is the best... being pregnant during a pandemic with a friend who is also your midwife is the best. Built in catch up appointments every few weeks (and in your own home!!!), someone who understood my life with 3 kids, who cared about health to the core of who we are, who shared the same faith in Jesus...

We had a false alarm the Friday before Jacob was born and as she left that evening/early morning, she prayed for me... I can remember just feeling so grateful to God who provided so perfectly for our final baby. 💗

This birth, unlike the others, I can remember actually drawing from the Lord the strength I needed, and I completely attribute that to having a midwife who was actually praying for me and cared about my soul.

And beyond that, her knowledge in so many different things was so helpful when I had a myriad of questions.... what about this? What about that? Who should I go to for this or that?

In one instance, we had slight placenta previa (which means your placenta is covering the opening that the baby comes out from. If you go into labor with your placenta there, you’ll bleed out). She was so calm and reassuring. Along with many prayers that the Lord would move my placenta, she was there to reassure me all the way to not panic or fear, but to trust that the body that the Lord gave me was capable and would do what it was supposed to do! Sure enough, God provided big time and doubled the amount of space needed to safely deliver at home!

Then, after birthing Jacob, he was just having some trouble breathing, which isn’t anything to fear, but she, again, was so calm, I had no choice but to feed off of her emotions and be calm myself.

I’m so grateful for each of my births for what they provided, but this birth in particular was so redeeming! It was calm, and rhythmic. When we let go of the fears the media and Hollywood has put onto birth (things on earth), and choose to think about things above (new life), drawing strength from the Lord, birth can be beautiful and redeeming and peaceful and calm. 💗

OPTIMAL CORD CLOSURE::

Immediately after birth, the placenta and umbilical cord continue to function as an external circulation system of sorts. At birth, about 1/3 of the baby’s blood is still in this external system. This blood is traveling, making its way back to the baby. Unless, you clamp and cut the cord…

In an adult, the loss of 1/3 of our blood volume is more than enough to throw us into shock. Can you imagine the shock of just being born and within the first seconds (minutes if you’re lucky) of life being denied this nutrient, oxygen, stem cell and iron rich blood and being expected to make a smooth transition to life outside the womb without it???

But when do you cut the cord? In my practice, parents + baby generally make this decision around 90 minutes after birth. By this time baby has latched at the breast and conscious of nourishment outside of their placenta. The cord is white and limp and vessel closure is happening physiologically.

Took a little time off this month to spend with my family. This is what makes this work sustainable for me and for us.

Now I’m back and ready for summer and all the babies it will bring!

Tell me just just had a fast (precipitous) labor and birth without telling me you just had a precipitous labor and birth 🙋🏽‍♀️😂

Seeing your “I did it” moments will never ever get old to me.

Posted • .births This is the "holy s**t?! I just did that?" moment after you have your baby vaginally, at home, surrounded by family and your loving birth team. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This is the way birth should be. Transformational and life altering.⁠⁠

Friends, this plant wall in this mama’s birthing space/room was a VIBE. ✨🌿💫🌿

I mean, swoon. She had a particular vision of how she wanted the space she would be laboring and birthing in to look and feel. Her mom and dad made it happen! Such a gift.

Let me tell you, it was a breath of fresh air for all & the grounding to nature we all needed during her birthing time.

Did you do anything specific to prep your space & make it personal? Set your intentions in what you surround yourself with. 🌸

I’m off to convince my husband to help me to build this in my house now. 🏃🏽‍♀️

I cannot emphasize it enough; the support of a doula is invaluable.

To all the doulas that are the hand to squeeze, the arms to hold, the whisper of encouraging words, I couldn’t do this without you.

You are so valued and so appreciated Everyone deserves what you do and the care you give.

Tag your doula below and share your story of how your doula supported you during pregnancy, labor and birth and postpartum.

Placenta birth! 🌳

Placenta birth is something I have found myself increasingly passionate about. When imagining, visualizing, and preparing for the birth of a baby, the birth of this organ that your body grew and created just to sustain life is often completely forgotten.

In a normal physiological birth, on average, most placentas have detached and are ready to deliver 30 minutes after birth. Many come sooner than this and many much later in the immediate postpartum.

It is incredibly powerful to witness a woman own her birth and then complete the process by also acknowledging and facilitating the birth of her placenta! There are many ways to do this. While no, we never want to “pull on the cord” we watch for signs the placenta has already detached and encourage the birther to tune into these cues in her body.

Unfortunately, our bodies are not just a tube-like chute, and using the handle we’ve been given (the cord), an already detached placenta can be guided along the natural curve of the birth canal the baby just preceded. You can do this yourself and I highly encourage it!

Gravity is also our friend in this physiological birth of the placenta. I often encourage and support women into a supported squat to guide their placentas out. Of course, this is just a choice and option available to you. Enamored by their new little love and swimming in oxytocin bliss, many of my clients consent to allowing me to guide the placenta out instead, while they enjoy their baby.

Did you birth your placenta? Were you given the choice?
