Birth, in all of its raw, ecstatic, primal glory is the most natural thing in the world to behold. It is beautiful. It is powerful. It is home. Yes there is always some risk inherent in birth - because birth is life, and because in birth we walk between two worlds - those of flesh and those of spirit. Yes birth often brings with it powerfully intense sensations - but when we are able to move, to sway, to breathe, to feel supported and loved, often this intensity is manageable and can be a precious opportunity to touch the golden core of our true power. The truth is that an undisturbed, physiologic birth is a normal bodily process. It is not an an emergency just waiting to happen - and more then that, listening to and trusting birthing women and their intuition is primary risk management. Look into the eyes of a child witnessing a gentle, peaceful, ecstatic home birth and take note of what you see. Awe. Wonder. Amazement. Fascination. Joy. This is the truth of the essence of undisturbed birth reflected in their eyes. Birth was never meant to be hidden away from us, from our children, from our families. It is not normal that for many women the first birth they ever witness is their own. (Common yes - but not normal). Ecstatic, powerful, passionate, transcendental, joyous, blissful, triumphant birth - is our birthright. Birth is part of the collective culture of women. We are reclaiming what is ours. And giving that gift back to our families for the health + well-being of the future generations.

We are changing the narrative and taking back our birth stories. . . This BOY with all these sisters ♥️ I asked mama if they loved him so much - she said “in a smothering kind of way”. How lucky he is 🤣☺️ #Repost @thediversebirth #ecstaticbirth #homebirth #waterbirth #gentlebirth #peacefulbirth #birthwithoutfear #empoweredbirth#homebirthmidwife#homebirthmidwifery https://www.instagram.com/p/CdUmJ0XgAX0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I like to call it your “due month.” You can give birth between 37-42 weeks and it’s still considered a full term pregnancy. . . . #midwife #midwifical #midwifery #midwives #midwifelife #obgyn #midwivesrock #midwiferycare #feministmidwife #waterbirth #waterbirthbaby #childbirth #naturalchildbirth #birthphotography #birthphotographer #birthphotos #birthphoto #birthphotogs #midwifebirth #3rdtrimester #thirdtrimester #laboranddelivery #laboranddeliveryrn #laboranddeliverynurse #homebirth #homebirthbaby #homebirthmama #homebirthmidwife #homebirthing

(via ***IN THE NEWS – WEEK OF 4/16/18 ***) Here is another weeks worth of news articles we found for you. If you only read one, please read the one titled:"Why America’s Black Mothers and Babies Are in a Life-or-Death Crisis"The results in the U.S on maternal mortality across all races is a national disgrace, but it is criminal (or should be) what is going on with black women in this country. Something needs to change NOW! I would love to hear your comments.

Childbirth is a physiological event. Sometimes it becomes pathological, and that’s why I work closely with my OBGYN colleagues.

The afterbirth...here you see the shiny Schultz side of the placenta. This is the fetal side, slick with membranes and jelly covering the blood vessels underneath. 📸: @littleyou_capturedbyalysha #midwife #midwifical #midwifery #midwives #midwifelife #obgyn #midwivesrock #midwiferycare #feministmidwife #childbirth #naturalchildbirth #birthphotography #birthphotographer #birthphotos #birthphoto #birthphotogs #midwifebirth #3rdtrimester #thirdtrimester #laboranddelivery #laboranddeliveryrn #laboranddeliverynurse #homebirth #homebirthmama #homebirthmidwife #homebirthing #placenta https://www.instagram.com/p/BpccJECHnaF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l1oqjz4pnv91

With this post about baseball & sex Andie hits it out of the park (see what we did there...).  We love the way she thinks!  We would love to hear some of your innuendo and double entendre. Oh, this could be fun...

Vernix! It’s that cheesy coating that provides a barrier between the fetal skin and amniotic fluid. Babies born at later gestational ages (i.e. 40+wks) tend to be born with less vernix. 📸: @monetnicolebirths #vernix #midwife #midwifical #midwifery #midwives #midwifelife #obgyn #midwivesrock #midwiferycare #feministmidwife #childbirth #naturalchildbirth #birthphotography #birthphotographer #birthphotos #birthphoto #birthphotogs #midwifebirth #3rdtrimester #thirdtrimester #laboranddelivery #laboranddeliveryrn #laboranddeliverynurse #homebirth #homebirthbaby #homebirthmama #homebirthmidwife #homebirthing
