The first 48 hours home aren’t supposed to look perfect. They’re supposed to be filled with grace.

Your older kid might eat french fries off the ground. The laundry might not get done. Nothing might go the way you planned. And all of that is okay.

Out CNM Erin’s best advice: let it be.

Erin and our other midwives, providers, and FMCC moms just like you are talking about the first two nights at home with a newborn in our FMCC Moms private community this week! Comment MOMS and I’ll send a link to join.

Those first few nights with baby, it’s time to treat yourself!

Eat your favorite foods and let your partner help!

Our certified nurse midwife Rachel shared this advice in our FMCC Moms Community.

If you’re in those first two days feeling like you’re just not sure what to do, we’re here for you. And if you’re looking for a place with other moms just like you and trusted FMCC providers you already know, join us in the FMCC Moms Community to share the highs, lows, laughs, and tears of motherhood in a space that’s safe and protected.

Maybe someone gave you the impression that the first two days postpartum are supposed to feel like a spa day. Rest, skin to skin, hydrate, eat…

But that’s just not always the reality. 😅 Our certified nurse midwife Erin explained in our FMCC Moms Community why her advice now looks a LOT different than what she used to tell patients.

If you’re in those first two days and it feels less like a spa and more like… survival mode — we’re here for you. And if you’re looking for a place with other moms just like you and trusted FMCC providers you already know, join us in the FMCC Moms Community to share the highs, lows, laughs, and tears of motherhood in a space that’s safe and protected. Comment MOMS for the link!

If your goal is to have a natural birth in a hospital setting, a birth plan is essential!

A birth plan is the best way to make sure everyone on the team knows what’s important to you, whether it’s the providers you’ve been working with throughout pregnancy or the nurses you just met on your way in. It can be simple and short, but it should be clear about what you want and anything that’s most important to you about your birth experience.

Our and offices will be 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 this Friday in observance of Good Friday. Please note that the last lab draw we can do on Thursday will be at 4pm.

This is not a decision based on convenience; it is due to the timing of when our lab draws are picked up, so anything drawn after 4pm on Thursday would sit at our office over the long weekend and then wouldn’t be viable anymore on Monday. To avoid the disappointment, please make sure you plan accordingly if you need labs on Thursday!

If you’re pregnant and sciatica has made sitting, standing, and sleeping a nightmare — this one’s for you.

Pelvic health occupational therapy really can make a huge difference in managing every day activities that become painful during pregnancy. It’s not just treatment. It’s someone who’s genuinely trying to figure out your life and get you back to doing important to you.

Hear more about how OT can help so many women in my conversation with our amazing OTs Sarah and Julia. Comment PODCAST and I’ll send a link!

Any specialist can treat an injury. Fix the tear, address the laceration, move on. But an occupational therapist asks a different question: what is this pain actually taking from you?

It’s not always about the injury. It’s about the life the injury is standing between you and. The bike ride with your family. The return to the gym. The ability to simply kneel and pray without being consumed by pain.

I hope you’ll share this with anyone you know who has been struggling with pain and thinking the only option is to manage it. Comment PODCAST and I’ll send a link to listen to the full conversation I had with our OTs Julia and Sarah about all things occupational therapy!

03/26/2026

Many women facing pregnancy pain are told to expect it, manage it, and just wait it out until delivery. But what if a big part of that pain is actually your body compensating, and understanding how to move differently could give you relief?

I’ve seen it happen over again with patients in our practice since we added occupational therapy. I talked to our OTs Sarah and Julia about why and how it can make such a huge difference for women before, during, and after pregnancy. Listen or watch the full episode! Just comment PODCAST and I’ll send a link.

Our Mission

To care for women and their families in a way that is scientifically and morally sound, while respecting a woman’s ability and right to manage her health, pregnancy care, and birth experience to the extent she desires. To accomplish this, we utilize the expertise of both Obstetricians/ Gynecologists and Certified Nurse-Midwives in a fully integrated model of care that allows both groups of professionals to offer their very best. The result: patients and their families receive personalized, comprehensive care they simply cannot receive in any other model of care.

We are an authentically pro-life practice. As part of our vision, we utilize Creighton Fertility Model/NaProTECHNOLOGY™ and therefore do not prescribe artificial contraceptives, place IUD’s, perform sterilization procedures, refer for in-vitro fertilization (IVF), or refer for or participate in pregnancy termination (abortion) under any circumstance.

We believe our practice is most certainly and purposefully different from most. It is not our desire to care for everyone, but to care for everyone that needs our unique approach to care. We believe unencumbered access to our providers is a key component to our successful outcomes. As such our patients are encouraged to communicate with us directly via the means that works best for them including cell phone, email, and text messaging. We believe it is an honor to serve as partners with our patients in their healthcare and we do everything possible to treat the sanctity of that relationship with the respect it deserves.
