It all starts with:
Prenatal Care:
Prenatal care visits are typically 45 minutes and encompass the varying layers of experience that pregnancy unfolds before us. Whether it is your first or sixth pregnancy, there is so much to discover. Prenatal care can be so much more than checking vitals, doing labs and listening to the baby’s heartbeat. I also want to check in with how you are integrating into this experience and how your family dynamic might be shifting. We may work through a protocol of herbs to strengthen your immune system or preventative herbs to help mitigate experiences from previous pregnancies. Trauma informed and family centered care is at the heart of my support, as it puts the power in the families hands to make informed decisions that work best for them.
All Prenatal care visits are included in the global Midwifery fee. Midwifery care can begin at any point in pregnancy, but the more time we have to co-create, the better!
They are offered:
0-28 Weeks of Pregnancy: Visit once a month | 28-36 Weeks of Pregnancy: Visit once every 2 weeks
36-40 Weeks of Pregnancy: Weekly visits | 40-42 Weeks of Pregnancy: Visits twice a week
Sometimes families need to begin prenatal care after 28 weeks gestation- whether it be due to travel or switching care providers. We can collaborate on catching you up on all of the education, preparation, and possibly lab work so that everything is in place for birthing! When families are beginning care in the third trimester, the schedule of prenatal visits will be more frequent, depending on each individual circumstance.
Late to care:
Birth in Your Power and Freely
By reclaiming birth as a rite of passage, we are able to embrace ALL the experience as a WHOLE. Pregnancy is a tremendous opportunity to go deeper embracing both the light and the shadow within, the uncomfortable bits of ourselves that will help us to uncover and release fears, doubts and even past trauma. Birth is a threshold through which no one comes out unchanged. You will be transformed by it. Birth is raw, primal and not an experience of the logical and thinking mind.
We invite you to experience sovereign birth rooted in your inner knowing and autonomy. We support physiological and undisturbed birth, offering our presence, encouragement, love and reassurance as an ANCHOR for you to have the birth that you want and that is most aligned for you and your family.
The contemporary concept of Midwifery encompasses tools that weren’t previously accessible to the Midwives in many of our lineages. In Texas, Midwifery licensure grants us the ability to carry tools such as Oxygen, IV fluids, antibiotics, and medications. We have the previous generations and especially the Granny and Indigenous Midwives to honor, in carrying the knowledge of herbs and supportive techniques forward.
There may be times around birth where one of these tools are required, and I am prepared to support you if the need arises, but only if it is needed.
Postpartum Care:
Postpartum visits occur:
24 hrs | 3-days | 1-week | 2-weeks | 4-weeks | 6-weeks
Welcoming your baby into the world is a time of deep pause and quiet, to hear the story your baby has to share with us as they open their lungs for the first time, is such a blessing. This pause is a time for you to meet your baby and welcome them into this world. Sometimes babies need our help and we can do most of this support right next you, without cutting the umbilical cord. I offer postpartum sitz bath herbal blends as well as belly binding in the immediate postpartum period to aid your tissues in healing. Typically after around 1 hour, or after a good meal for both parents and baby, I offer a comprehensive newborn exam- where I take my time in. The usual immediate postpartum time is 2-6 hours before we tuck the family in to rest and then the first postpartum visit is within 24-48 hrs.
