Midwives love all things "baby"! We spend our days welcoming little ones into the world, so getting some fluffy puppy snuggles was the perfect mid-day surprise at a recent birth. Our hearts (and our hands) are officially full. 🐾

When Alison says she’s just taking the “first load” out to the car as we pack up, what she actually means is she’s carrying every single thing in one trip. 🏋️‍♀️📦

Welcome to the world, baby Theodore! 💙

This sweet boy made a grand entrance in the early morning hours, giving his two big siblings the best surprise to wake up to! It was a beautiful home birth that filled the house with so much peace and love.

Congratulations, Kristen and Ryan, on the arrival of your precious baby boy. We are so happy for your growing family!

✨Happy International Midwives’ Day! ✨

All of us at Trillium are so blessed to recognize that we were called to this work according to a plan bigger than ours. Without the confidence that this is 100% what we are each supposed to be doing, there is no chance any of us could still be practicing in this field. The emotional, physical, and mental work that goes into midwifery is sometimes more than most people might notice. The lying awake at 3 am, night after night, worrying about an upcoming client’s birth that you’ve been anticipating might not be completely smooth. The frequent second guessing decisions you made in prenatal or labor management, and wondering if you made the right choice. The heartache of hearing your children (from two up to eighteen) saying “do you have to leave again?” as you rush out the door to another birth, five minutes after returning from a full prenatal day, or a previous day long birth, knowing you’re missing another family dinner, birthday, or bedtime book. If there was not assurance that this is our calling, we could not, and would not, be doing this.

All of this is balanced by clients we love, births that bring joy and laughter, a town that takes good care of us, jokes and “behind the scenes” goofiness, quality snacks in our cupboards, midwives and staff who all deeply love and support each other, and the ultimate knowledge that we are designed to do hard things.

We have learned that laughter is the best remedy. We will keep encouraging each other with this truth, as we will to all our clients 🙂 Your midwives love you, each other, and this work.

Welcome to the world, baby Jasper! 💙

Jasper made an early entrance at 34 weeks, weighing in at 4 lbs 1 oz.

His journey wasn’t exactly what the family had planned. During a routine prenatal visit, our midwives identified signs of preeclampsia. We collaborated closely with the hospital team to pivot their care.

At 34 weeks her water broke. Sabrina had a beautiful, quick hospital birth! She even told us at her postpartum visit that the experience was “almost enjoyable.” 🥹 God was so good to this family throughout the entire process.

Despite his early start, Jasper proved he was strong and determined. He spent only 6 days in the NICU before the nurses told his parents they were "running out of reasons to keep him!" At his 2 week check up with us, he had already jumped up to 4 lbs 9.5 oz. 📈

This is what midwifery care looks like.
It isn’t always about "Instagram-worthy" home births or twinkle lights (though we love those too!). A "perfect birth" is defined by a healthy mama and a healthy baby.

Midwifery care means:
✅ Individualized attention
✅ Recognizing warning signs early
✅ Knowing when the hospital is the safest place to be

We are so grateful for the wonderful hospital staff we work with who provide such excellent care to our clients when plans change. Congratulations, Sabrina and Ammon!
