💕🌿 Roses are red, babies are due… and love is in the air at Linden Tree Midwifery! 🌿💕
This Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating all kinds of love — the candlelit-dinner kind… and the “hold-my-hand-through-this-contraction” kind. 💪❤️
At Linden Tree Midwifery, we know:
Nothing says romance like timing contractions together.
True love is whispering, “You’re doing amazing,” for the 47th time.
And the strongest relationships are built somewhere between the birth pool and the snack bag. 🫶✨
To our wonderful families:
Thank you for letting us be part of your love stories — the ones that end with tiny fingers, squishy cheeks, and that brand-new-baby smell that beats any bouquet. 🌹👶
This Valentine’s Day, we’re sending love to:
💗 The birthing mums — you are fierce and fabulous.
💗 The partners — professional hand-holders and snack-fetchers.
💗 The babies — the cutest Valentines of all.
💗 And our amazing community — rooted, growing, and blooming together like the beautiful linden tree. 🌳
Whether you’re celebrating with chocolates, cuddles, or a newborn who thinks 3am is party time… we love being on this journey with you.
With love (and a fully stocked birth bag),
Linden Tree Midwifery 💚✨

Today is National Sexual & Reproductive Health Day 🌿
Sexual and reproductive health is a vital part of overall wellbeing. It includes physical, emotional, and social health, and it affects people across the lifespan. When individuals have access to accurate information and respectful care, families and communities are stronger and healthier.
Comprehensive education, evidence-based healthcare, and open conversations help reduce stigma, improve health outcomes, and support healthy relationships. Creating safe spaces to ask questions and learn empowers people to better understand their bodies and their health.
Everyone deserves:
• Clear, reliable information
• Respectful and compassionate care
• Privacy and dignity
• Support that honours their values and beliefs
At Linden Tree Midwifery, we believe that strengthening sexual and reproductive health supports the wellbeing of our entire community. Today is an opportunity to reflect on the importance of education, prevention, and access to quality care for all.

✨ Now Offering Fresh Tests for Gestational Diabetes Screening ✨
We’re happy to share that Linden Tree Midwifery now carries the Fresh Test as an option for gestational diabetes screening!
Many families prefer the Fresh Test over traditional glucola because it’s made with simple, recognizable ingredients, no artificial dyes or flavors, and tends to be easier on the stomach. Clients often tell us it tastes better and feels gentler—especially helpful if nausea has been part of your pregnancy journey.
As always, our goal is to offer safe, evidence-based options while honoring your comfort and preferences. If you’re coming up on your screening window and want to learn more about whether the Fresh Test is a good fit for you, just ask—we’re happy to talk it through 💛

This is why we never pull forcefully on the cord to deliver a placenta.
This is a true circumvallate placenta with a marginal insertion. This was not diagnosed during prenatal ultrasound. It was discovered after the birth.
The insertion of the cord increases the risks of the cord separating from the placenta during placental delivery.
Both of these placental anomalies can increase the risk of problems during labor and birth.
For this momma, we got her into an upright position for delivery of the placenta so that gravity could assist with the birth.
Momma didn't have any complications from this unusual placenta. Our bodies truly are amazing!

Just one of our Linden Tree Mommas breastfeeding her baby on top of a mountain.
Motherhood can be so hard. And just like the uphill struggle when hiking, it can feel overwhelming and huge. Then you get those moments of beauty and wonder, like the top of a hike, that make you realize it is all worth it!

Home birth is an amazing opportunity for you and your family to start a new chapter of life in a place that is safe, comfortable, and meaningful to you.
The joys of home birth are countless. Imagine welcoming your baby into the world surrounded by your everyday comforts, your family and friends, and your midwife you’ve seen throughout the entirety of your care. Imagine being tucked into your own bed with your newborn and starting your journey as a parent without ever having to leave your home.
Your birth is the celebration of all that you’ve accomplished in the months before, attending prenatal visits, making choices with your baby’s well-being in mind, and learning to trust your body and the childbirth journey.
However, your pregnancy and birth is just the beginning. By choosing home birth midwifery care that respects and honors your choices, you’ve empowered yourself as a parent and can carry that strength into you and your baby’s future.
