The first moments after birth are powerful. Skin-to-skin contact helps both you and your little one adjust, connect, and thrive.

Here’s why those first cuddles matter:
✨ Regulates baby’s temperature, heart rate, and breathing.
💞 Strengthens bonding and emotional connection.
🍼 Encourages early breastfeeding and milk production.
🌿 Helps calm both mom and baby.

At Santiam Family Birth Center, we honor these early moments of connection—because sometimes, the best medicine is a mother’s touch.

As your due date approaches, you might start to notice tightening or cramping that makes you wonder, is this it?

Here’s the difference between Braxton Hicks and real contractions:

Braxton Hicks (“practice contractions”)
• Irregular and infrequent
• Usually go away with rest or hydration
• Often felt in the front of the belly

Real Labor Contractions
• Regular, stronger, and closer together over time
• Don’t ease with movement or rest
• Felt in the back and move toward the front

If you’re ever unsure, we’re here to help you navigate every step toward meeting your baby. 💕

Your baby’s first Halloween is full of sweet memories (and maybe a few extra layers of cozy!). Before you head out for trick-or-treat fun or festive photos, here are a few simple safety reminders for parents and little ones:

🧡 Dress for the weather – keep costumes warm, dry, and comfy.
🖤 Avoid loose masks or face coverings that block breathing.
💛 Choose flame-resistant fabrics and visible colors for stroller walks.
💜 Keep candy and small decorations out of reach from curious hands.
🤍 Snap lots of photos and enjoy your first spooky season together!
