We are always honored to hold space for you as long as the process takes, but it’s also so exciting to know you are close to meeting your baby!

One of our favorite parts of welcoming your baby at home is the newborn exam. Done usually at least an hour after birth; giving space and time for you to bond with baby.
We set up all our supplies at the foot of your bed. So you can see and touch your baby. We weigh them, take measurements, provide newborn medications such as vitamin K if desired, and do foot prints for keepsake.
All while chatting about how much baby looks like other siblings, or has mamas nose, how great the water felt during transition, and just processing the events that have just unfolded.

Riverbend’s first baby of 2026 🤍
After this mama’s first baby came at 39 weeks it was a surprise that her second baby made her patiently wait until 41 weeks for her arrival. Once it was time though, things moved swiftly, and baby girl was born just as midwife Haley walked through the front door. Everyone safe, healthy, and full of joy to finally meet this little one.

Yesterday we got to watch our first student graduate midwifery school!! 🥳 Kirsten started with our practice in March of 2024. She was a second year student at that time, taking in everything she was learning but not too sure of herself just yet. Watching her grow over our time together has been incredible to watch. She knows her boundaries but isn’t afraid to push herself if it means she’s going to learn something new. She is wicked smart and funny, so loving and caring, and most importantly, a safe and competent soon-to-be midwife. She always goes above and beyond to ensure the families she serves are well cared for.

We are all so proud of her! Midwifery school is HARD. It stretches you physically, emotionally and mentally. So being able to say “I did that!” is huge. We can’t wait to see where midwifery takes her!

If you had the pleasure of meeting Kirsten during your care with us, please congratulate her and leave a favorite memory in the comments! 🤍
