A midwife shares her heart while at a birth.

We are all humans with compassion and professionally.

Midwives really do care for the whole person versus just the physical.

Birth is a powerful transformation experience for birth mom and baby as well as the family as a whole.

Thank you to this amazing midwife for giving us the truth of what a birth team is really like.

If you’re pregnant or planning to be and you want the BEST care… interview midwives. You will be so happy you did.

Home, birth center or hospital your life and your baby’s is depending on your choices.

🥗 I wanted to reset my system so I made green juice to get me started.

I start with watermelon, adding green and romaine lettuce, cucumber, cilantro, celery and lemon juice.

I blend it well but don’t let it get hot.

I strain it with a new cheap paint strainer that is washed well before.

Squeeze out the juice and put the small amount of fiber left overs into the compost.

I put it in pint jars filled to the top and remove the foam air bubbles. When there is no air in the jar it will last 4-7 days.

These are packed with nutrition that will reboot your cells. I just love it.

Enjoy❤️🤗
Natural Childbirth 101 |Childbirth Educator | Midwife | I love helping people be healthy especially during pregnancy as you grow your baby.

🤔Fear of birth… it brings adrenaline which slows the labor.

🫣Fear of birth… birth wishes you would trust it. It is part of who you are. Coming from inside you, not outside of you.

Courage in birth… welcomes progress. Welcomes the flow of energy, strength and movement.

💪🏼Confidence in yourself! Let go of what society has told you about birth. Who you are is who birth is.

❤️You’re amazing, strong and capable. So is birth.

😉You’re smart, determined and brave. So is birth.

If you’re fearful, scared and worried. So it birth. It will shy away, resist working and create frustrations, disappointment and discouragement.

👍Stand up today! Decide who you will be at your birth. Birth is listening and willing to agree with you, it’s inside you

Natural Childbirth 101 |Childbirth Educator | Midwife | come and be educated to develop the courage within yourself so birth can do the same. Classes are on going and self paced. Start early in pregnancy 😉

💭 Have you ever wondered what really happens when you choose an epidural during labor?

Most women hear about epidurals as a simple solution for the intensity of labor.🤔

But have you ever wondered what happens to the rest of the birth process when sensation is reduced?

An epidural can be an important and helpful option for some women. At the same time, it changes aspects of normal labor physiology and may lead to:
👉🏻additional monitoring
👉🏻IV fluids
👉🏻a urinary catheter
👉🏻reduced mobility
and sometimes medications such as Pitocin.

That doesn’t make an epidural “good” or “bad.”

It means you deserve to understand the whole picture before you’re in labor making decisions.❤️

In my newest blog, I explore:

✨ What an epidural actually does
✨ How it can affect movement and contractions
✨ Why blood pressure and baby monitoring may increase
✨ Why Pitocin may sometimes become part of the picture
✨ How medication can affect the baby
✨ Why understanding your nervous system and preparing for labor matters
✨ Questions to ask yourself before deciding what you would love for your birth

One of the most important questions you can ask yourself during pregnancy is:

“Am I choosing this because it is what I truly want—or because I’ve been taught that I won’t be able to handle birth without it?”

There is power in understanding your choices.🌿

Your birth belongs to you.

So many times I hear a woman say “ if only I had known, I would have done this all so differently.”

If you want to know what you can do to help your baby be healthy, yourself be healthy, prepare for a birth that is smooth, non-interventive, then start here.

you are in the drivers seat with a navigator to guide you on this journey.

Pregnancy is a time for education, change and transformation.

Birth is not about all the equipment, drugs and doctors who can rescue you.

Birth IS about learning and preparing to own your experience and walk it with courage and confidence. Yes having a skilled attendant such as a midwife to ensure safety is great. The real job is what you do inside.

Physically your body must prepare to expand everyday for your baby and in birth it is your life which expands.

Mental and emotional preparation are essential as your hormones are depending on it. Having a guide will support your journey.

Spiritually you’re becoming a parent. A new version of who you are rather this is your first or fifth.

I am Kaleem Joy and I will walk this journey of empowering YOU to know what you can do to have a healthy pregnancy, positive birth and smooth transition into parenthood .
