Calling all July babies!

Some fun facts for people born in July.

For the record, July was named in honour of Roman general Julius Caesar (born on the 12th). Prior to that, it was called Quintilis, because it was the fifth month of the 10-month calendar.

Do you think July is a good month to have a baby?

Perks of midwifery are home visit adventures! and I had a blast yesterday running around Bellingham and Oak Harbor visiting sweet postpartum families and stopping for food and beach time along the way. It’s summer and yarrow season! We stopped at Deception Pass to harvest some yarrow and collected rocks on the beach. ‘Twas a balm for the soul kind of day ✨

Calling all June babies!

Some fun facts for people born in June. I’m gearing up for Onion Rings Day on June 22nd. 😆

For the record, June’s birthstone can also be alexandrite because rock people can’t make up their minds. It’s a beautiful stone, though, so I’ll cut them some slack.

Does anyone have a baby born in June? Is it a good month to have a baby?

The newborn exam, done right on the bed with mom, is one of my favorite parts of being a midwife. It’s magical to take a head to toe look at this brand new freshie tiny human. I’ve been getting to know them usually for months and now get to meet them in person.
The newborn exam is typically done at about two hours after birth after parents and baby have had time to snuggle and bond and work on nursing.

Who says pizza isn’t good for you!! Loaded up with veggies, good fats, and proteins! The cauliflower crust is very tasty for the gluten free option. Had to fuel ourselves during/after or IV skills practice!

How you are treated is what you will remember most; how you were made to feel. It’s those feelings of empowerment and tenderness that will hold you while you move through the process of bringing your baby earthside.

This is true no matter where you give birth. Home, hospital or operating room. I want every person giving birth to feel like they were seen, heard, and celebrated during one of the most monumental human experiences/transitions. Because birth matters!

Because who doesn’t love a scratch and sniff sticker! Your midwives think you’re amazing and it’s the little things that can make your day. Good job doing adulty stuff today! Good job being a kid at your mamas prenatal appointment! Good job getting your blood drawn! Good job supporting your partner!
