Today, we reflect and remember the heart of what we do.

For midwives, midwifery is more than catching babies.

It’s late nights, skipped meals, and missed holidays. It’s blood, sweat, tears, and amniotic fluid. It pushes you beyond what you thought you were capable of, physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s truly one of the hardest things you will ever do.

But, it’s also...

Watching a woman find her power. Bearing witness to new life again, and again. Walking with families through unimaginable heartbreak, and sharing the joy of redemptive triumphs.

We are honored to walk alongside families through some of the most powerful, vulnerable, and transformative moments of their lives.

To our team, our colleagues, and midwives everywhere, thank you for the work you do, the care you give, and the lives you touch every single day.

And to the families who have trusted us with your care for over two decades, thank you. We wouldn’t be midwives without the women and families we serve, and being a part of your story is a privilege we never take lightly.

Happy International Day of the Midwife 🤍

So Long, Alexis! 💕

After two and a half years of laughter, teamwork, and the profound privilege of caring for women through one of life’s most transformative moments, our dear friend and colleague Midwife Alexis is moving on to her next chapter. We’ve loved having her as part of the AMFW family, and we’re so grateful for everything she brought to our practice and our team.

This isn’t goodbye though. As we always say, the DFW birth community is small, and we can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’re going to do next! We wish you nothing but joy, growth, and all the beautiful births ahead in your new practice. 🫶🏼

We had the joy of welcoming high school student Kylie to shadow Midwife Caty and learn more about the midwifery model of care as part of her curriculum. Kylie hopes to pursue a future in midwifery and birth work, and we were so honored to spend the day encouraging those dreams.

What makes today even more special? Kylie was born right here in this very birth center almost 18 years ago.

To see her return, now hoping to one day care for families in the same way she was cared for, is such a beautiful reminder of why we do what we do. We cannot wait to see all the amazing things ahead for her. 💙

When baby has plans of their own and insists on staying breech, we keep showing up. 🤍

Now, our midwives are scrubbing in with our patients for cesarean births too!

Midwife Lauren scrubbed in to first-assist our collaborative physician while helping to train Midwife Ashlyn, so together they could continue to care for their patient every step of the way.

At Allen Midwifery & Family Wellness, continuity of care means your midwives never leave your side. Whether you birth at our birthing center, in the hospital, or in the OR for a C-section, we are right there beside you.

Because no matter how your baby is born, you deserve familiar faces, steady hands, and the same midwives who know your story staying at your side through it all!

Let’s talk about the magic of the tub before active labor has started 🛁✨

If you’re wondering whether labor might be starting, one of the first things your midwife may suggest is getting into a warm bath. Warm water can help your body relax and is a great way to see what kind of contractions you’re experiencing.

Prodromal labor, Braxton Hicks, and early contractions will often slow down or fade with simple measures like emptying your bladder, drinking water, lying down, or soaking in the tub. If contractions ease with these things, it’s usually a sign that active labor hasn’t quite begun yet.

Every labor looks a little different, so if you’re unsure, always call your midwife. In the meantime, the tub can be a simple and helpful way to check in with what your body is doing.

Behind every busy birth center is a front desk hero.
Our phones ring nonstop, and Josephine keeps everything organized, calm, and welcoming.

Let’s just say… when our nurse Hannah tried stepping into that role, she quickly realized she was not ready!
