Motherhoods Contradiction

I’ve been the happiest since I’ve had children.
I’ve also been at my lowest.

I’m a much better version of myself.
I also haven’t always liked what I’ve seen when mirrors have been held up to me.

I’ve never been in more company.
And at times never felt so lonely.

Some days I don’t want to end.
Some days I wish away, oh and the guilt from feeling that when they grow so fast.

I’ve never been so sure of who I’m meant to be.
I’ve never wondered so much who I am.

I’ve never felt closer with my husband.
But at times, I’ve never felt more distant.

I believe in myself, I trust myself.
I’ve questioned myself and doubted myself.

I always want to be better for them.
But I’ve yelled and cried and wished I’d handled certain situations better.

I’ve never loved so hard and so fiercely.
And I’ve never felt so vulnerable.

I’ve never been more broken.
And I’ve never been more complete.

I’ve never smiled so much.
I’ve never cried so much.

I’ve never craved alone time more.
But when I am I always feel like somethings missing, like an arm.

I’ve never been so excited to watch them grow.
And simultaneously wished they’d stay little forever.

Some days I feel like I’ve achieved nothing.
But as I think of them at night, I know I’ve achieved everything.

I’ve never looked forward to so much.
And I’ve also, never looked back.

It’s one beautiful contradiction.
A journey of wrong turns that are probably still right.
And dreams of the future even if you don’t get enough sleep to dream.
Exhaustion but effortless love.
The hardest and most rewarding thing ever.
Motherhood.

Extra thankful for the clients I serve today.

My last home visit day before going on maternity leave was joined by my daughter, Rose. She has been extra clingy since I’ve had an increase in oxytocin this week and it was so nice to have her welcomed as well during the check-ups.

To me, the care I provide is more than clinical and many times it flourishes into a deeper relationship with the women and her family. It’s a blessing.

We are all in the same season, and it feels extra special to be a midwife in this short period of time.

I love you mamas! I love how you’ve chosen to live your life. The way you grow, birth and raise your babies is changing the world.

✌️

Happy Mother’s Day to each and every one of you. Whether you are on the road to conceiving, on your 4th pregnancy or in the wee days of postpartum with your first - we see you and honor you for all that you do.

Here’s a compilation of some of the mamas in the last few weeks who have graced us with their trust and joyful presence. We love you! 😘

Warmly,
Your Full Circle team

Happy International Day of the Midwife to all those who have served women in this capacity, but especially my right hand angel of a woman, mama and midwife — Sadie!
Sadie was the first midwife to officially join my practice when I was pregnant with Rose and her with Lily. We laugh because we both are in the same season of life; wanting to grow babies while also continue supporting mamas growing their families too! It has come with its own set of difficulties, twists and growing pains but I can’t imagine doing this wild job with anyone else. The support is everything and we midwives often times are so caught up supporting our own clients, we forget we deserve it too! It will be 3 years in August and I hope for many more with this earthy, sweet natured woman

Yesterday, we supported the in their hard work of bringing this organization back alive in our community. It was so nice to catch up with other birth worker friends and meet new ones! The families who came were a testament of changing times and women wanting MORE during their sacred parenthood journeys. It was a lovely way to celebrate 🌤️

It was such a treat seeing all the beautiful smiling faces at the picnic. We are truly blessed to serve this community and form lasting relationships through the years. Thank you to the families who came and made this day special. We love you! 🥰

We are so excited to see all of our special families and birthy peeps this Saturday for a lovely spring picnic! Bring your shades, sunscreen and water bottles :) We will be set up inside the fenced in park - look for the cloud balloons.

That warrioress look after she birthed her baby is everything 🌀 birth is hard, but you’re strong

One of our favorite things to do is cultivate and nurture community. Over the years we’ve done different gatherings, and have loved seeing you and your beautiful creations after flourishing for 1,2,3 or even 5 years since that last time we saw you. This year we want to come together at Riverside Park and have a picnic. Your kids can freely play in the fenced in playground and large field of grass and also get their faces painted 🎨🎈🧺 We will have some activities for the grown ups too, besides relaxing on a blanket under the open skies (bring some extra set of hands for the kids 😎)

Please RSVP so that we may ensure there’s plenty of food and drink to share. Look for the ☁️ balloons 😊
