Midwifery is necessary and if Midwives cannot practice to their full scope the results the model of care offers cannot be seen.

Hospital Midwives should have FULL Autonomy.

Hospital midwives need more autonomy to provide the full midwifery model of care.

When practice is restricted by physician oversight and institutional protocols, families may not receive the individualized, evidence-based support that midwives are trained to offer.

The end of July brought some swiftly born people 🏎️💨 this sweet 9th baby, first home birth for this family… came into her mama’s arms on her way back from the 🚽 without warning. Dad was quick to action w keeping mom and baby warm and comfortable + called the birth team. Farah of Epiphany Birth Services, llc and I arrived in time for placenta 😅

K family, I was such a joy to serve you and get to know your sweet family and children. It was also such a pleasure to prepare you and continue to support your postpartum and lactation journey.

✨Some people do pregnancy + labor + birth with whimsy and beauty.

✨She called, we came, we observed, we monitored and we beheld.

✨Home, water born, 6lb, perfect, baby brother.

✨4th baby, first homebirth

✨Such a beautiful labor and birth.

✨K family, thank you for letting us care for you and hold safe space.

✨Watching you follow the lead of your body and receive your baby together was by far the highlight of the morning.

This dreamy sister was water born and this family’s second home birth VBAC with us ❤️ Her first VBAC came with its own set of challenges- baby position, long labor and the battles that our brains wage against us in our hardest and deepest trials.

This labor and birth was ✨everything✨ needed and necessary to soften, strengthen and perhaps redeem. Really such beautiful, hard work.🥹
———
VBAC is special and comes with a special energy. It reveals and heals things in us surrounding birth and mothering. The second VBAC finds new, undiscovered touch points and shimmers along the previous ones with more purpose - to drive home how wildly capable you knew you were but really solidifies it pulling firmly on that confidence ❤️

C family, thank you. Thank you for letting us love on your family again. Thank you for having us in your home to witness the growth of your family. We are so incredibly proud to know and love you.

Birth photographer, Ashleigh of Moonstone Photography got some really great shots. Always a pleasure to see you in the birth space sister😘

🥹 it will never become old and I’ll never not think of you in the years to come. All in the same breathe. 🥹

Gratitude to the to the magical force that brings the right one to you, gratitude for the goodness of others, gratitude for the baby the slips into the world to the parents arms, gratitude for the love inside the room at the birth of a baby, the growth of a family and the growth of a mother. Gratitude for the hands that hold their hearts and their hopes. Gratitude for endless laughs and vulnerability. Gratitude for the challenges and the opportunities to meet them toe to toe. Gratitude for the boring and mundane that grows a baby but keeps you well rested, adjusted, fed and glowing.

M family, I could go on for days about the love we have for you. I will never forget you or your beautiful births and what they taught me, what you brought to this space and my heart as a midwife. You are full of love and beautiful, worthy and wonderful things. Thank you for allowing us to take care during the starting, growing and completing of your family. I know we will see one another for wellness care and the occasional pop by the office, but the bitter sweetness of this goodbye deserves a note❤️

🌱The sweetness of this repeat family.

🌱A baby brother gifted in love to this now big brother.

🌱Seeing these first babies grow so greatly from the confirmation of the second pregnancy to the birth of their sibling… 😮‍💨🥹 leaps and bounds. Big words, big ideas, big feelings and simply big excitement.

🌱Home birth planned for this beautiful brother and the most incredible birth — expecting a labor like her first, she quietly allowed her early labor to pass her by…. Into her hands her baby came….followed by her birth team over the threshold 10 min later.

🌱M family, we are incredibly blessed to know you and so honored to know and care for the versions of you motherhood and parenting has grown into you both. Thank you for allowing us to care for you again.

✨ good people, growing good people.

Back in May, I was asked to assist Caitlin of Mulberry Stained Birth Services w a sweet and wonderful family along side her Student Assistant Hope of Abide Doula Services

This mama dug deep for her babe and found exactly the power and strength she needed. Labor and birth take us to the very edges of ourselves and ask us to go even further. 😮‍💨 The growth birth inspires in us….

B family, thank you for having me apart of your journey ❤️

Caitlin, always a pleasure 😘
