If you are in need of Formula check this out.

Here is the power of social media at work for good! This team of moms -
Stephanie Patiño & Malori Landers have started a group in the Memphis area called Baby Formula and Things. The group has been growing over the weeks & so many parents have been helping each other out on this group by sharing pictures of store shelves and posting it to help parents in need of finding formula for their babies. Please consider joining in if you are a parent needing formula or a parent that can help find items. It takes a village and working together can help everyone. Thank you!

Worth sharing again, because we stand in that place where we were given the microphone for one Bereaved Mothers day and are passing it along now to Mothers day, a day filled with minefields of invalidation, platitudes, and silence.

Check out this study that investigated whether salivary hormone concentrations of women ingesting their own encapsulated placenta during the early postpartum differed from those of women consuming a placebo.

Hey folks!

It’s been awhile but wanted to update! I’m no longer taking births outside of Tipton county and same with Postpartum. The cost of things are going up and unfortunately that affects my business.

Thanks for understanding 🙂

I think a lot of people don't understand that, despite the name, MOST obstetric violence doesn't involve physical force. It can also be threaded through law and policy, and manifest through improper communication or lack of communication.

Like:

- patients are not given the option to refuse membrane sweeps, cervical checks, waters being broken--they're told very nicely that this is what is going to happen and most people don't even know to question that

- state regulations "require" patients to submit to prenatal vaginal exams if they want to have a home birth

- hospital policy restricts doulas from being present with their clients

- mandatory surgery policies aka VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) bans

- a patient is given a deadline for birth (before X weeks) or for labor (in under X hours) with the consequence being an invasive medical intervention

- any version of "you want to keep your baby safe, don't you" or "you don't want to hurt your baby, do you" as a justification for a medical invention or substitute for informed consent discussion

- the justice system has no mechanism to value the impact of rights violations and trauma on victims so no such lawsuit is ever viable

This is by no means an exhaustive list.

I would argue that obstetric violence is structural where midwifery is marginalized and oppressed, and overseen by hostile parties who often have a vested interest in suppressing midwifery access.
