Homespun Midwifery

Taking a blood pressure reading at each prenatal visit is one of the many ways monitoring our clients’ well-being. If levels start to rise, but are still within normal range, we review lifestyle changes and prescribe herbs to support their cardiovascular system. Photo credit

🌼Feeling gratitude for midwifery today.🌼

As a midwife, you never really know what each day will bring. Caring for clients in the country allows me to slow down and be present with the earth. Breathing in the fresh air is reinvigorating and grounding. I paused to take one more gulp of fresh air and check out Mt Hood before heading back to town!

Excited to welcome the next round of babies into this world!

Despite all that is going on in the world, people are still giving birth. Babies continue to remind me of our resiliency- delicate but strong. As a midwife, I feel like we live in the “in-between” as we usher new lives into this world. While we spend so much time with babies in utero, it is only a few weeks that we get to cherish our time with babies once earth side. I’ll take all of the snuggles!
