Big Valley Midwives

We attended a lovely day time water birth this afternoon for a first time mother. It’s the third day of October and all of our October babies arrived early so suddenly the midwives have an unexpected two weeks off call. Thanks babies.

This is for all the mothers who chose home birth after their last baby was born in the car on the way to the hospital or in the parking lot at the hospital or in their own driveway trying to get into the car to go to the hospital.

Aww! A mama moose gave birth outside the window of a hospital in Anchorage. The staff watched in awe as the calf was born and took its first steps. One worker said the moose was laboring all day before the calf was born.
