"Chichi" viene del náhuatl 😍👍😲
Chichihualli es "seno o pecho"
Chichihualyolcatl es "pezon"
Chichitia es "amamantar"
Chichihualayotl es "leche"
Chichihuacuauhco es "el árbol nodriza/que da leche" y es el paraíso a dónde van los bebés que murieron al nacer o antes.
La palabra "Chichis " o "chichi" proviene del náhuatl que significa "mamar" o sea, la acción de mamar, incluso, cuando una bruja o un nahual chupaba a alguien, el verbo que se utilizaba era nitechichina (significa literalmente “chupar a la gente”); una nodriza (la persona que amamanta a los bebés ajenos) era una chichiua; el verbo para “mamar” era nicchichi y un oc chichi piltontli era el lactante, un niño que todavía mama.

Because she’s should! These ladies are essential in my ability to support the families that have brought me into their birth team. From the advice, the “keep me awake while I drive home from a long birth calls” , their genuine encouragement and their willingness and capability to step in, just in case, support my clients as I would! I am so thankful for every single one of them 🥰

Planned Home Births Are Just as Safe as Birth Center Births!

� New research from Oregon State University analyzed over 110,000 births across the U.S. and found:
� Fewer Transfers: Lower hospital transfer rates for planned home births.
� Better Neonatal Health: Fewer NICU admissions compared to birth centers.
�Maternal Safety: Comparable rates of postpartum hemorrhage and hospitalizations.

Led by Dr. Marit Bovbjerg & Dr. Melissa Cheyney, this study confirms that home and birth center births are equally safe for low-risk pregnancies. Informed choices = safe, empowered care. �

At NACPM we’re committed to promoting equitable access to safe, community-based birth options and addressing barriers to midwifery care. �
