Honoring Kim & Raising Awareness for Amniotic Fluid Embolism (AFE) 🌟

As many of you know, my dear friend and sister-midwife Deidre lost her sister, Kim, during childbirth 35 years ago due to a rare obstetric emergency called Amniotic Fluid Embolism (AFE). This heartbreaking loss has significantly impacted her life and work in maternal health.

This year, with the support of the AFE Foundation, she worked with the Governor’s office to have March 27th officially recognized in Kansas as Amniotic Fluid Embolism Awareness Day.

To honor Kim and help bring further awareness to AFE, she is hosting a gathering on March 27th. It will be a time to remember Kim, share about AFE awareness, and connect with friends, family, and community members.

I've included the event page details if you’d like to join. ❤️

Choosing to give birth at home is a beautiful, empowering option—and we're here to support you every step of the way. Home birth isn't about being anti-hospital—it's about having OPTIONS. It's about being pro-choice in where and how you bring your baby into the world.

Is home birth right for you? Let's talk about it! 🌿✨

Our repeat client welcomed her precious baby girl Lucia Fae!
After a cesarean birth with her first, mama had a beautiful and empowering vaginal delivery this time around.
Baby arrived a little earlier than expected and made a fast entrance—keeping everyone on their toes! Big brother was so excited to meet his new little sister.

Congratulations to this sweet family! We're honored to have been part of both of your birth stories.💕✨

No flower blooms before its season.
Like nature, birth unfolds in its own time. Labor has its own rhythm, its own pace, its own unfolding. We’re here to protect that process, not hurry it. 🤰🌷

💗Welcome to the world, sweet Ilaria Lynn💗

This mama is a warrior in every sense of the word! With 2 big brothers and 3 big sisters already at home AND running a restaurant during her pregnancy, she's proven time and again that she can handle anything.

Her birth journey over the years has included cesarean, premature labor, and a hospital transfer—but this time? This time she got the peaceful, natural birth she'd been hoping for.✨

We'll admit—we were on the edge of our seats managing a few concerns along the way, but mama trusted her body, we trusted the process, and in the end, baby arrived safely in our birth suite with no complications. 💗🙏🏼

Congratulations to this incredible family of 8!

February was full of strength and sweet new beginnings. 🤍

We’re especially celebrating the incredible mamas who achieved their VBACs this month — what a testament to courage, preparation, and trust in their bodies.

This month also included births across multiple settings, including one planned hospital birth and one transfer during labor. No matter where birth unfolds, our commitment remains the same.

We believe care should be consistent, compassionate, and respectful — in every setting. Our role is to walk with you, advocate for you, and ensure you feel supported every step of the way. 🤍✨

Home birth or birthing suite? Both are beautiful options, and our role is to provide personalized care, support informed decisions, and walk with you every step of the way.

There is no “one-size-fits-all” birth—only what feels safest and most aligned for you. We’re here to help you explore your options and choose with confidence. ✨

💬 Have questions about which option might be right for you? We’d love to talk.

We are so grateful for families who trust us with such a sacred season of life. 🤍 Being welcomed, heard, and respected—especially as a first-time mom—matters deeply to us. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your birth story Until next time!

We are so blessed to have Mikayla on our team! ✨

Over the years, we have had the privilege of being her midwife for all three of her children. Now, she’s giving back as one of our birth assistants, serving families with the same care she once received. 💕

Mikayla joined us in June 2025, and we are so grateful for her dedication and heart for mothers and babies! ❤
