Did you know Midwife Love has won national awards in 2 categories this year? ACNM grants "Best practice awards" by comparing birth statistics from practices all over the country. Our awards were: A VERY LOW RATE OF PRIMARY C-SECTION (people needing their first c/s), and A VERY LOW RATE OF C-SECTION IN FIRST TIMERS WITH A HEAD DOWN BABY. All of this to say, we excel in normal, physiological birth rates. We know how to hold sacred space, decrease fear, and allow you to freedom to birth.
How do we do this? We have patience with pregnancy due dates and are not rushing you to have the baby by your due date or even 41 weeks. We have patience with labor timelines and know that every body is different in how quickly birth goes. We encourage movement and upright positions for birth. We assess baby's position throughout labor and recommend certain positions that your baby needs to rotate and descend through your pelvis. We speak words of love, encouragement, and reassurance NOT FEAR during your labor and birth. This helps you relax and surrender to labor. We are experienced midwives who want a sacred, safe, and beautiful birth for you, and we work hard for that. During prenatal visits, we teach you about normal birth and demonstrate exercises to get your body balanced and loose to make your birth easier. We know local bodyworkers if you are experiencing imbalances or pain in your body as well. If you're looking for a physiologic normal birth, you've found the right place. Give us a call to set up your free consult. www.midwife.org/acnm/files/cclibraryfiles/filename/000000009385/2023%20ACNM%20BENCHMARKING%20Best%20Practices%20by%20Volume%2010-2%20V2.pdf
