Auntie is Awsome

Bunkers, Forbes, Mattia 030A child learns through modeling behavior.  As a result, this little boy thinks his Auntie is the best!  At her prenatal appointment, he wanted his fundal height check and his baby’s heart beat dopplered.  How exciting it is to introduce new generations to a different kind of pregnancy/health care.

“Operation Midwife” at Chico Hot Springs

Operation Midwife 074On May 5th, 2010 a group of “Go Getters” met in Pray, MT at Chico Hotsprings to discuss topics relevant to Midwives in Montana.  It was a gathering of 16 women in all walks of life including me, a Practice Manager, a Doula, Midwife Apprentices, Licensed or Professional Midwives, and Nurse Midwives.  The group was loaded with power and wisdom and all are in support of Midwifery and women’s right to pick a care provider of their choice.  There was laughter and unity…what else could we ask for.  Thank you to all who attended and we look forward to next year at Fairmont Hot springs, May 5th, 2011…Spread the word because having 30 of us there is my goal.
