I did my first primary birth today! The sweet baby was born en caul, meaning she was born in the amniotic sac. I have always wanted to see that but it only happens 1in 80,000 births! I may never see it again. I really really need to write this stuff down- I doubt I would ever forget anyway. I didn’t have any hands for photos so I got this one off Google. Photographer unknown. So special

Newborn feet are not only charming but also provide valuable insights for medical professionals. Midwives can evaluate gestational age by examining the characteristics of a newborn’s feet. Additionally, during a newborn physical assessment,midwives test the Babinski reflex, where the toes fan out, particularly the big toe, and the plantar grasp reflex, which involves the toes curling inward, to ensure proper neurological development.

I have an unexpected clinic day. Appreciative for my friends who step in to watch my baby so I can attend and accomplish necessary tasks.

My view while I finish up some charts. Checking and double checking as I prepare for the next step of school. This boy is either a distraction or an inspiration. I haven’t officially decided

Skills day today today! Catheters and IVs. Special shoutout to all my nurse friends who let me watch and help in the hospital. I felt very confident doing it today. GETTING one wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be either. Good job and thank you for educating and supervising.

Good morning everyone. Today I am getting a straight cathed in exchange for giving one to my fellow student. In the name of education 🙂
Also- I don’t want to practice on moms when they need one. I want to have already done it. Some things about being a student midwife- I tell ya 🥴

Love you all

kat.spies Today was my first time assisting Such a great day. Beautiful family, beautiful labor. The mom’s smile after her baby was born will be burned into my head forever. I won’t share her photos but l do have permission to share her award winning placenta! This beast was over 2 pounds. Is Heidi dancing with it? Posing with her phenomenal catch? You decide. That momma ate tons of protein, beef liver capsules, calcium. All the healthy goodness.
Her placenta deserved a spot on the web. Placenta goals!!
