A huge THANK YOU to the December babies for staying put so Midwife Jennifer could enjoy with the whole family.

We were so honored to serve this beautiful family as they welcomed their first baby. Dad was interested in catching his baby and jumped right in when the time came. We all heard him say “He has my lips!” as he helped deliver the head. Student Midwife Ariel did an amazing job managing her first catch as a Primary Midwife under supervision. This baby had the most gentle entrance, with a fierce and determined mama to gently guide him out. It was beautiful to see this whole family work together to welcome this sweet little guy! Congratulations!

This mama is a FORCE! She powered through a long first labor and did an amazing job! Such an honor to see this family work together to bring this baby earthside.

We have had the pleasure of being a clinical preceptor to .martin during her Yale University Online Physicians Assistant program during her Womens Health rotation. We’ve had a wonderful time in clinical days feeling lots@of baby licks and spent more than a few nights drinking coffee and baby waiting. It was an honor to have you work along side our team and we wish you then best in your journey!
