💫Place of birth💫

💫Help me out let’s prove a point & tell some truths

💫uk Birth centers are closed or rarely functioning, home birth services limited understaffed or suspended, so two choices often removed…

💫One born every minute💫

VS

💫One born every now and then💫

➡️ Swipe to see my thoughts! Late to the party but I wrote this a week ago 🫣😂

💫Years ago when I was a birth center midwife, Labour ward midwives used to call us “one born every now and then” OBENAT 😭comedy genius 😂they thought we didn’t know!
💫It was true compared to them because we didn’t medically manage birth, we were always the underdogs and never busy enough (we were actually the busiest BC in the north west) at the time!
💫However let’s discuss why filming OBEM wouldn’t work well on a BC or at home birth especially these days!
💫Sadly now babies are born once a week or every few few weeks or not at all on birth centers
💫Which causes so many other wider issues that I often discuss!
💫Would love to know your thoughts and opinions

🖤Maternal art🖤

🖤How have I only just discovered this incredible artist
🖤I just had to share with you all, especially you twin mamas 🙏✨💫
🖤Check out her other work and the making of this sculpture 💫
🖤Our bodies are just absolutely divine & incredible ⚡️



Her words ⬇️

🖤I was really burnt out after completing this project. Stressed by the lack of time and the amount of work, I worked hard day and night for weeks. After I was done, I didn’t even want to look back. Now I feel happy and proud that I managed to bring her to life. Hopefully soon I will find a new studio, where I can cast her and hopefully work on something new. ✨ For now, just little snippets of the process working on the Mother. I remember how Rosalia’s LUX was my daily soundtrack, it would keep my spirit high and my heart open, even when I was exhausted and frustrated. Definitely became one of my favorite music albums of all times.
