Hello dear ones! I am praying for the right words - words that reassure - words to bring calm to your hearts and minds. ❤ One of the overriding feelings surrounding pregnancy - birth - new parenthood - is VULNERABILITY. That isn't a bad thing. It can… ift.tt/2IFI5v9

Birth can be a family event! Mom definitely has her work to do- the hardest work - but that doesn't necessarily mean her people can't do their part! Moms- It means so much to the people who love you to have something to do- some small job through which t… ift.tt/2TmsiHU
Women often apologize to us for sharing "too much information." They don't realize that there is NO SUCH THING as TMI when it comes to being a midwife - and that the more information we have, the better we can do our job of caring for each woman and each… ift.tt/2VrBPyQ
Have you ever thought that maybe you'll be one of those women who sleeps through labor? Do you wonder if maybe you won't realize you're having contractions and maybe you'll even miss it? 😴 LOTS of first time mothers share this same concern! 😴 In earl… ift.tt/2uxWruk
It's TRUE that the cervix needs to move out of the way before the baby can come out. 🏵 However, in terms of your body getting ready to let the baby out, it's more promising to have a soft, thin cervix with a baby who is quite low in the pelvis, than … ift.tt/2wzHEQB

Let's be honest- Let's talk about control. . The fact that most of us don't know what to expect from birth - or even when to expect it - can be pretty intimidating. When will it happen? How will it feel? Will I be able to handle the sensations? Will my … ift.tt/2SfKjY4
In our opinion- Midwifery is an ART as well as a SCIENCE! It takes TIME to listen, understand, empathize, and be present with each INDIVIDUAL woman. - Its not just about the weighing, measuring, and lab tests- it's also about time spent really LISTENING… ift.tt/2tOuSg0
