Out of hospital birth, a legacy and family affair…

This client was born out of the hospital like her mother, her grandmother, and all her ancestors before her ❤️ When she chose a home birth for her son, she didn’t just think it was a nice idea, she was carrying on a legacy! Her choice was very deliberate and without a question in her mind.

Her grandmother was a midwife and had 7 children! My client would love to carry on that legacy as well and become a midwife one day 😍

This little guy, I just want to eat him up 😍 He gave us all a run for our money though! With his water breaking early and realizing he was going to come earlier than expected, we had a lot of extra informed choice discussions.

When active labor came, my client labored so gracefully and intuitively. She was so well supported by her large and loving family ❤️ During the course of spontaneous pushing, the little guy was making us a bit concerned and we took extra safety precautions and expedited the pushing process to get him earth-side as soon as we could! With good strong pushes, he soon came and all was well ❤️ 5lb 9oz of perfection, nursing well right away ❤️

Having a large support team does not work well for everyone. This client had abuelas and tias galore, supporting both in person and live virtually! The environment was so respectful of the process and supportive, it worked well for her! Her postpartum includes lots of family support and some culturally significant practices.

What a joy to serve this family 😍

When I say “It is my joy to serve you” I really mean it!

I enjoy being invited into your space, feeling your baby move around in your belly, giving you a hug in hard moments, making sure you are well informed and supported, meeting all your family, drawing on your belly, envisioning your birth space with you, and helping you make it come to life 😍, watching you become a mom, helping you catch your baby, watching your baby thrive, and dreaming about future babies with you…

I do plenty of hard things and boring things in my work too, but my favorite part is you!

My top priorities are: Keeping you and your baby safe, and helping you have an empowered and supported birth experience ❤️

The oxytocin is strong with this one 💗

This first time mom rode a sweet river of oxytocin through her labor 😍 I have a lot of newlyweds in my care this year, and this couple just oozed the lovey-dovey hormones and warm embraces and sweet words through this gorgeous labor. She whispered “We’re all doing so good” with a little smile before she eased into the intensity of transition and traveled further off into labor land ❤️

She was well supported by her husband, doula, mother, sister, midwife, and birth assistant as she birthed her baby in the water and brought him to her chest ❤️

Every prenatal visit was long and filled with joy and questions (I love questions 😍). They prepared well and were equipped with the tools and mindset they needed. She excelled in embracing the intensity and enjoying the process of labor, no matter how physically challenging. Her labor was so smooth with no cervical checks. What a joy to serve this family ❤️

This little person will make his or her appearance anytime! They have very prominent feet, making their left occiput transverse (LOT) position quite obvious! Can’t wait to meet him or her 😍

Live music in labor?! 🎶

One of many special parts of this labor is that some of my client’s closest friends were in town when her baby decided she was ready to come ❤️ They played music and sang to my client at times over the course of her labor, bringing such a unique and ceremonial feel, just what she desired ❤️ And when she needed space, then that was respected as well! Labor your way, do what works for you, you have more options than you realize!

Happy 6 week visit to this strong mom and baby girl ❤️

She labored powerfully using many tools to help bring her baby earthside 💪 The Birth Sling was one of her favorite tools, but a change in venue and some old fashioned coached pushing and strong encouragement ultimately did the trick to welcome this 9lb 2oz baby girl ❤️

Did you know that I provide tools for your labor including the birth pool (with twinkly lights), the birth sling (pictured), and a peanut ball?

Happy last day of world breastfeeding week 🤱🎉

Just a reminder that I am also a breastfeeding mom ❤️ I get it and value your journey, however long or short ❤️ I will do my best to support your breastfeeding journey whatever it may look like ❤️

Also, I can never recommend a skilled IBCLC (lactation consultant) highly enough! They are truly the lactation experts. See if your insurance covers both prenatal and postpartum consultations!

The first picture 📸 here is when I was preparing to take the NARM exam to become a Certified Professional Midwife. My children 👦 👧 have been involved throughout my journey to become a midwife and serve you ❤️ I have been pregnant or breastfeeding for over 5 years straight now!

More belly mapping 🤰🖍️🗺️

This little baby was a stinker! Moved from back on mom’s left at the beginning of the appointment to back on mom’s right by the time I was ready to belly map! And we could not get a good listen with the fetoscope to help confirm position, but having 4 children present may have impacted that 😂

Rushing the process 🏃‍♀️⌛️

Feeling a bit fired up after reading a post that had been shared well over 100x saying that if you push for more than 15 min without seeing obvious progress, then you probably started pushing too early 🤯 I was shocked to see people in the natural birth world promoting this!

The idea that if birth is not fast then something is wrong needs to be stopped 🛑 Why would we, in the home birth and natural birth community, perpetuate this idea that brings so much trouble to moms and babies in the hospital system?! 🏥

10cm 📏 is not a magic number to start pushing, which I agree with the post on, most of my clients I’m not checking to see if they are 10cm and I’m definitely not telling them when to start pushing. The body knows when to start pushing the vast majority of the time in unmedicated labor, AND ALSO, it’s very normal and not wrong or a problem if first time moms spontaneously push for over an hour!

✨Patience✨ when nothing is wrong is something that has shown up again and again in different ways over the past year in my practice. I had two clients that spontaneously pushed for over 4 hours 😮‍💨 (most don’t 😂), and they still had beautiful home births! They needed support in the process, but they didn’t start pushing “too soon”. One had been 10cm for hours before getting a spontaneous urge to push.

Telling moms when they should or shouldn’t push 🙅‍♀️ or putting them on the clock 🕰️ to get their baby out 👶 has no place in the normal, healthy, unmedicated labor process. If something does seem wrong 🚨 concerns there may be cervix left, an exhausted mom, concerning heart rate for baby, good reason to suspect a malpositioned baby, or another legitimate concern - we make recommendations to assess and intervene, but time on a clock is not a reason ⏰
