Yes, Cesareans can absolutely be life-saving, but they are also major abdominal surgery.

When a procedure is medically necessary, the benefits outweigh the risks. But when they aren’t, we are asking bodies and babies to take on risks that could have been avoided.

Knowledge is power. Understanding the “why” behind an intervention is the first step toward an empowered birth experience. ✨

The highest rate in 30 years.

“The US has seen a significant rise in the rate of planned home births, with a 60 % increase from 2016 to 2023, reaching a total of 46,918. This trend positions the US as the leading developed country in terms of home birth prevalence.“

The data is clear: Midwifery continuity of care, specifically with private midwives, is the gold standard for reducing birth intervention and preventing birth trauma.

What the Study Found:
• Lower Intervention Rates: Having a consistent midwife reduces the likelihood of unnecessary medical pivots.
• Reduced Birth Trauma: Continuity creates a safety net of trust that protects a mother’s psychological well-being.
• Better Outcomes for Babies: When the mother is supported and her autonomy is respected, the baby reaps the physical rewards.

It’s about so much more than just a healthy baby. Your choice of provider is the biggest predictor of your birth story.

Let’s talk about that standard six-week postpartum checkup. Honestly, it has always felt a little strange, hasn’t it? You go through the most transformative, physically demanding event of your life, and then you’re essentially told, “See you in a month and a half! Good luck!”

Home birth midwifery flips that script. We don’t want the “I’m fine” you give to a stranger in a clinical office. We want the real, messy, beautiful truth of how you’re actually feeling.

Why the “long version” matters:
• The first few days are vital. No one should have to pack up a newborn and a diaper bag while they’re still healing. We visit you in your own space, where you can actually relax. We actually see you multiple times in those first delicate days and weeks. We’re there to check your physical healing, monitor baby’s health, and help with the learning curve of breastfeeding.

Postpartum is a massive transition. From the immediate days after birth until our final hug at six weeks, we are walking right alongside you. We’re there to listen to your birth story, hold space for your tears, and offer practical advice for the adjustment. You aren’t just a 15-minute slot on a calendar, and you don’t have to summarize your experience for us.

We have all the time in the world for the long version.

CURRENTLY THE PUBLIC CAN MAKE PUBLIC COMMENTS ABOUT THE PROPOSED CHANGES! WE NEED YOU TO WEIGH IN! 🎤

➡️ Submit your public comment to this email address:

advisory.boards@tdlr.texas.gov

Below is a sample public comment you may copy, paste, and adapt.

“I am a midwifery client here in Texas, and writing in regard to the proposed revisions to the Informed Choice and Disclosure Statement for Licensed Midwives as discussed in the Midwives Advisory Board meeting on Jan 13th (Agenda Item G).

I support transparency and informed choice in maternity care.

I am concerned about the proposed requirement for midwives to explain personal financial responsibility related to malpractice. As a consumer, this information would not help me make safer or better decisions about my care. Instead, it could create unnecessary fear or confusion at an already vulnerable time in pregnancy.

The proposed revisions significantly expand the Informed Choice and Disclosure Statement in ways that go beyond what is mandated in statute. I respectfully ask that this form remain focused on health, safety, and care options rather than on my provider’s personal financial situation.”

You only need to submit one comment, but more are always welcome.

Please share with your friends who use midwives!

Every comment matters. Every voice helps shape the future of midwifery in Texas. By speaking up now, we protect informed choice, preserve the integrity of the midwifery model of care and ensures that future policies truly serve families and midwives alike.

I think sometimes people imagine home birth is just lighting a candle and hoping for the best. (I mean, we love a good candle, but there’s a lot more to it!)

One of the best parts of midwifery is that you get the clinical standard of care but delivered in a way that actually honors your space and your pace.

Low-risk home birth care includes the same “stats” as hospital care:
• Standard blood work & labs
• Genetic screening
• Anatomy scans/ultrasounds
• Full newborn clinical exams

The clinical safety is there, and it doesn’t involve fluorescent overhead lights, but maybe a good candle.

“Anything that disturbs a laboring woman’s
sense of safety and privacy will disrupt the birth process.”
- Dr. Sarah Buckley

There’s a reason it’s called “labor land.” When you’re in labor, your brain is doing some pretty intense behind-the-scenes work. Dr. Sarah Buckley hits the nail on the head here because birth isn’t just physical, it’s deeply hormonal. For those “love hormones” like oxytocin to flow, your body needs to feel completely unobserved and totally safe.

Think about it like this: it’s really hard to let go and be vulnerable if the lights are harsh, the door keeps swinging open, or you feel like you’re being watched. When that “fight or flight” response kicks in even a little bit, it can actually slow things down.

Make sure your birth bubble stays intact.

How are you planning to “set the mood” for your birth space? I’d love to hear your ideas in the comments!

Who else feels like winging it is a personality trait at this point? 🙋‍♀️

Whether it’s “cooking” dinner by seeing what’s left in the fridge or showing up to a workout hoping the instructor just tells us what to do, we’ve mastered the art of the pivot. But birth? Birth is the one thing you really don’t want to meet with a “we’ll see what happens” vibe.

While your body possesses a deep, ancient wisdom, your mind needs a roadmap. When we feel stuck or anxious because we don’t know what comes next, labor can actually slow down. Adrenaline is the enemy of oxytocin, friends.

That’s why preparation matters.

A great childbirth class and a dedicated doula are game changers. But it also starts with your provider. When you feel safe and supported, birth flows.

Stop winging the big stuff. Let’s get you prepared, confident, and ready to meet your baby. 🤍

The whole “home birth is risky” talk is something we have heard a million times, but the actual data tells a completely different story.

When you look at the research for low risk women it turns out that planning a hospital birth often leads to more interventions and complications without actually improving safety for mom or baby. In fact large scale studies show that planning a hospital birth can significantly increase your chances of things like serious bleeding or infection and it makes you more likely to end up with a c-section or an episiotomy.

The study (linked below) even points out that there is no evidence that hospital births are safer for low risk women. Instead we see that home birth drastically reduces the “cascade of interventions” while keeping outcomes just as safe.

Home birth isn’t a trend, but a research backed choice for anyone wanting a physiologic birth.

To the ones who make the 3 AM wake-up calls worth it💘

Usually, Valentines are for significant others, but ask any midwife and they’ll tell you: we’ve got a pretty special “relationship” with our clients.

We’ve seen you at your strongest, navigated the late-night texts together, and witnessed the literal magic you’re capable of. So, we made some cards just for you.

If we’ve had the honor of being your “Ride or Dilate” and you loved your experience, it would mean the world to us if you’d leave us a review!

It has one job, and it’s going to do it, whether you’re ready or not! 😅

Transition is the shortest part of labor, but it’s definitely the part where the “I’m done” thoughts take over. If you feel like this video, take note: it means your baby is almost in your arms. 🥰

You aren’t a student, and birth isn’t a final exam. But unfortunately society has conditioned us to believe that birth is a medical emergency waiting to happen. Or that it is a complex procedure we need to “master.”

Here’s the truth: You don’t need to be taught how to dilate. What you do need is:
• To understand the physiology of how your body works.
• To be in a space where you feel safe and unobserved.
• A team that supports you instead of managing your every move.

My role as a midwife isn’t to give you a play-by-play or tell you when to move. You already have that map inside you.

How would it feel to be supported instead of managed?

You aren’t a student, and birth isn’t a final exam. But unfortunately society has conditioned us to believe that birth is a medical emergency waiting to happen. Or that it is a complex procedure we need to “master.”

Here’s the truth: You don’t need to be taught how to dilate. What you do need is:
• To understand the physiology of how your body works.
• To be in a space where you feel safe and unobserved.
• A team that supports you instead of managing your every move.

It’s a common misconception that home birth is the “trendy” choice. Or it’s women who are “anti-hospital. But in a recent study of US women, the number one reason families choose home birth is to avoid unnecessary interventions.

The study found that the top reasons women stay home are feeling safer, avoiding “routine” interventions that aren’t always necessary, and simply wanting to be in a familiar space where they are in control.

What was the one thing that made you feel most “safe” during your labor? Let’s chat in the comments. 👇

This is home birth. No rushing, no separation, just peace, joy, presence, and big brothers and sisters getting to meet their newest best friend while we ensure everyone is healthy and safe. 🥰

Home birth is a shift in power. It’s moving from a system where you are managed and treated like a template to a trusted relationship where you are seen, heard, and respected.

If you’re realizing that you want to be the one making the calls for your body and your baby, you’ve already taken the first step toward home birth.

Does it feel like you’re the one in charge of your care right now? If not, what would change if you were? 👇

We all know that a drop in barometric pressure is basically a formal invitation for babies to make their debut. ❄️

Sadly most birth plans are simply a list of basic human rights that clash with standard hospital efficiency.

In the medical model, you are often presenting your plan to a room of strangers who are seeing your desires for the first time while you’re in active labor.

In the Midwifery model:
• Your plan is discussed at every prenatal visit.
• Your midwife knows your fears, your hopes, and your “no-gos” months in advance.
• We don’t “allow” your plan; we protect it.

Did you feel like your birth plan was respected, or was it treated like a “polite suggestion”? Let’s hear your experience below. 👇

It’s hard to trust a process you’ve never witnessed.

When you choose a provider who is uncomfortable with the “wait and see” nature of true labor, you often end up with:
• Unnecessary time limits.
• Pressure for early induction.
• Interventions “just in case.”

The Midwife Difference:
Physiological birth isn’t something we just “allow” because it is our specialty. Safeguarding the natural process is fundamental to the midwifery model of care.

What “safeguarding” actually looks like:
• Patience: Knowing that labor has its own unique rhythm and doesn’t follow a standardized hospital chart.
• Protection: Creating a space where you feel safe, which allows your hormones (like oxytocin) to flow freely.
• Presence: Watching for the subtle signs of health rather than just waiting for a complication to occur.
• Expertise: Knowing the difference between a “slow” normal labor and a true medical necessity.

Work with an expert who trusts the process as much as you do. Hire a midwife.

There’s nothing quite like the “blank stare” you get when a provider has to scroll through pages of digital notes just to remember who you are. Pregnancy is one of the most transformative times of your life, and you aren’t just a 15-minute time slot.

Midwifery care differs greatly because our prenatal appointments aren’t just medical check-ins. They are the building blocks of a deep, trusting relationship. We know your story, your fears, and exactly how you want your birth to feel. We remember the names of your older kids. We remember why you were nervous last month. We remember your birth goals without looking at a printout.

When you feel safe and seen, you can labor with confidence. That’s the power of the midwifery model of care.

When you’re told you have to have a C-section for twins or a breech baby, what they often mean is: “We aren’t trained to support this naturally.”

We’re changing that narrative. We spend hours of our limited free time studying the mechanics, attending advanced skills workshops, and practicing the maneuvers that protect the natural process of birth so that “surgical” isn’t the only option on the table.

Whether it’s your first baby or your VBAC, you deserve a team that is constantly improving for YOU.

If you knew me, you’d know this…

Birth is not something to control or rush through.
It is something to protect.

Every woman deserves care that honors her autonomy, her intuition, and her strength. Care that is rooted in evidence, shaped by experience, and grounded in trust.

My own births changed me. They taught me how powerful women truly are and why being seen and supported matters so deeply.

My role is simple and sacred.
To walk beside you.
To hold space.
To remind you of what your body already knows.

You are not meant to do this alone. 🤍

One of the most common questions we get is how we keep a close eye on you and baby while you’re tucked away in the birth pool. The good news is that we can provide all the safety and monitoring of a typical birth without ever needing you to leave your happy place!

We use a special waterproof Doppler to listen to baby’s heart rate right under the water. It’s simple, non-invasive, and lets us hear that beautiful rhythm while you stay relaxed. Along with checking on baby, we stay right by your side to monitor your vitals, like your pulse and blood pressure, using our standard equipment.

The warm water is incredible for offering natural pain relief, but our priority is always a safe delivery. We monitor both of you very closely throughout the process. If we ever feel we need more frequent monitoring or if things get a bit more complex, we might ask you to step out of the pool for a little while.

We’re here to protect the peace of your birth space while ensuring you and your baby are safe and sound every step of the way. 🤍
