🎤 *Steps onto soap box & clears throat*
::
If you are a doula, childbirth educator, midwife, birth keeper, social media influencer, person who just loves birth, whatever label you have that makes you the "expert" on women's bodies & birth. And you are telling women "you don't need a cervical exam. They aren't useful. Your dilation doesn't matter." Or even worse [and I've heard this] "You don't need to be m*lested in order to know when to push." 👀...
Disrespectfully, stop fear mongering these same women into believing every.single.option.or intervention is inherently bad/wrong. Because then you leave women with no options. As a trauma-informed midwife, amplifying their fear & mistrust of their provider is the bigger issue here. It takes away their power, it places YOU in the position of power, & makes them feel bad/wrong for making a choice that felt right for them in that moment.

I have attended births where I could visually see, hear, smell, & feel that a mom is well on her way to birthing her baby very soon & never did an exam!And I love that for us.
And I've also attended births where we have been there for HOURS when (usually a first time) mom looks like she's in transition but when she finally decides she wants an exam, she's 2-3cm. Or a mom who is "pushing" on a 6cm cervix. You know what isn't helpful? A woman in early labor with her entire birth team present, trying not to make her feel like a watched pot, feeling like she has to perform, and E X H A U S T E D. When she could have had a gentle & useful exam followed by a loving conversation & reminder that she can just rest.
Look, I've said my fair share of crazy sh*te before I was a midwife (& probably since!) But what I've come to realize in the last 5 years, is that women are afraid of everything! Thanks to information overload! Like, if they have a cervical exam or didn't do their hypnobirthing "right," they didn't have a physiological birth & the crunchy police are coming for their crunchy card - I'm crunchy so I can say that...

Moms: Tune out the noise, check in with yourself, have an informed convo with your trusted provider, & advocate for what YOU need. You are the expert. 🤟🏼

January was a fun month for us!
All 3 births had something unique. And for that, I'm grateful for more experience! And so so proud of everyone of these women who navigated different obstacles and new experiences! ♡♡♡

Mother's day in January?! 💐
(We think Mothers day should be everyday!)
::
We have space on our calendar for May due months so we wanted to extend what would be our mother's day special to those also delivering in May. ♡
::
Whether you haven't started care with a provider yet or you're feeling like it just isn't a great fit! This is the perfect opportunity to explore your options.
::
And for those TTC, if you see those 2 pink lines in April, give us a call to book in May!

When people say "I bet you have the best job on the planet, getting to hold babies!!" 👀
::
Who's gonna tell them?
::
This is .midwifeamber on a casual friday morning just fishing out blood clots from the toilet to gain an accurate quantitative blood loss.
::
This is the reality and non-glamorous side of midwifery! 🤷‍♀️
::
While it is THE best job on the planet, we actually hold the MOTHERS.... and fish out blood clots as needed.😂

As a homebirth midwife, I hear this one A LOT.

"My house is just"...
▪︎Too small
▪︎An apartment
▪︎Close to neighbors
▪︎Not that nice
▪︎Also my parent's house

Let me tell ya a secret...
Your baby doesn't care, we don't judge, and wherever YOU feel the most comfortable is where you should birth!

We have attended births in; tiny homes, studio apartments (both are pictured), unfinished basement at the in laws, at the grandparents house, AirBNBs, out in rural old farm homes, bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and living rooms!

Do your landlords need to know? Not if it isn't in your rental agreement. 🏡⛺️🏰

Might your neighbors hear you? Maybe, but we haven't had the cops called yet!!! 👀😅

The space is small? That's ok, we make it work, every.single.time. No Place too big or too small!

What if it gets messy? Yes, birth can be messy AND we are pros at cleaning up the space like we were never even there! 🧼💅

Why you might not want to birth in your home (wherever/whatever that is)??👇🏼
▪︎If you aren't comfortable there.
▪︎If the people you live with would make a scene.
▪︎If you don't have electricity.
▪︎If you don't have running water.
▪︎If you're a high-risk pregnancy.
▪︎If you don't want to be tucked into your own bed immediately after & stay there while your midwives come to you for postpartum appointments.
▪︎If your baby is judgemental and prefers aesthetics over comfort. 👑

This mother previously had 3 hospital births with epidurals. She didn't mind her experiences but decided she wanted to try something different for this one, so she did! Originally starting out at a birth center, she decided that wasn't the right fit either. So she decided home was where she would welcome her little one.
And while her 3 little boys slept down the hall, we witnessed her roar her baby girl into the world and straight into her own hands.
::
She explained after the birth that the euphoria following the birth of her baby girl was worth it!
::
Aside from certain medical conditions, there are no "rules" when it comes to choosing homebirth.
First time mom? What a great way to start! 4th time mom? We love our "seasoned" mothers! You want to birth in your own tub? Let's do it! You want certain friends & family present, or your kids and partner involved/not involved? Whatever you want! You want to move around as you please, eat and drink, catch your own baby?
We Are Here For It!
::
This is birthing on YOUR terms. As it should be.💅

Raise your hand if you've ever personally heard a provider say: "we can't do delayed cord clamping because the blood will flow back into the placenta." Or "we will have to hold your baby at a lower level so the blood doesn't flow back into the placenta, so you won't be able to have immediate skin to skin." 👋🏼

If you express a concern and your provider is just throwing more pills at you, or worse, just giving a blanket answer like "it's normal in pregnancy," and glazing over it. Without exploring deeper with you about what might be going on and supporting you in finding a solution for your situation -it's laziness.
::
When it comes to preventing possible complications in pregnancy & staying low-risk or even just being more comfortable, this is where I suggest starting...
::
Not fancy prenatal vitamins, not special teas and elixirs, other specialized services, or any of the stuff you're constantly being sold or told to do.
::
These are the framework for a healthy, low-risk pregnancy. If these aren't in place, throwing everything else in the mix, isn't going to make as big of an impact.
::
And this is where our hour-long prenatal visits come in. We are checking in on these, as well as other pregnancy discomforts. And providing the education to help support you in these areas if something is off! Do we suggest supplements or herbs for something like poor sleep? Absolutely! But we also want to know what is happening in YOUR life and we brainstorm ways to support you, based on your individual needs.

Personalized, compassionate, empowering, and integrative care is the future!

It's not just about medicated vs. unmedicated.
Women (& men) are realizing there IS a more enjoyable and practical way to bring their babies into the world.

And it doesn't involve someone else managing you, birthing on their terms, in their facility, or with strangers. Going through the motions & ticking the boxes...

It involves someone who is also invested in you, your family, and your health. Understanding thay physical, mental, emotional, & psychosocial experiences have a profound impact on the well-being of you and your baby.

As a midwife who provides care from a trauma-informed approach, I recognize the impact that my care has on my community. I committed to ensuring your respect, dignity, safety, collaboration, & empowerment.♡

It's word-y but it's personal.
::
The longer you're in this work, the more you realize it's not really about the stats. It's the relationships built, the connections, the humanity, community, and personal growth.
::
Every birth & every client has something to teach me -regardless of the method, the time, the number, etc. Women & babies aren't just another number to me, a statistic. They are stories, experiences, relationships, humans.
::
Alas, I still shared the statistics for fun. But you'll have get through the tiny print of our musings first 😅
