So incredibly grateful for the 49 families who trusted me in 2025 🤍
I witnessed courage, resilience, and deep strength—especially from these mothers. It was an honor to walk alongside you in some of the most powerful moments of your lives.
✨ 2025 by the numbers:
• 40 vaginal births
• 9 cesarean births
• 4 VBACs
• 20 boys, 29 girls
• 10 home births, 39 hospital births (over 10 hospitals)
• 14 inductions (6 resulting in cesareans)

Across so many rooms, hospitals, and birth stories—each one unique, each one sacred. Thank you for letting me be part of it. Forever humbled by this work 💫

Let me know what questions you have.

✨ Special Delivery ✨
Nothing is more special than being present for the birth of a grandchild. I was the lucky one who witnessed the incredible strength of my (step) daughter as she brought our second grandchild into the world during her beautiful home birth in The Hague, the Netherlands. 💛🏡
What truly stood out to me was the very different approach to supporting a physiological birth compared to the USA:
* ⭐️ Mother of 41 (advanced maternal age), IVF conception
* ✨ First NST non stress test) and BPP (biophysical profile) at 41 weeks
* 💪 No other health risks for mother or baby
* 🙏 Spontaneous labor began at 41+6, with baby born just after midnight at 42 weeks
* 💥 Birth complication: sticky shoulder / shoulder dystocia — resolved quickly by repositioning and skilled midwife care
* 👶 A healthy 8lb 3oz baby girl, no tearing, and she nursed shortly after birth
* 👩‍⚕️ Present: a midwife and a postpartum nurse
* 🧡 For 8 days after birth, cared for mother and baby for ~6 hours each day
A heartfelt thank you to for your patience and unwavering support for a physiological birth, and to for your incredible, nurturing care during and after the birth. It was truly amazing to learn so much about the Dutch birth system and to get to know both of you. 🇳🇱
And to — I love you millions for allowing me to support you and to be there with you and your family through all those days leading up to this magical moment. 💕🌿

✨ The Moment We Wait For ✨
Why Delayed Cord Clamping Matters
When your baby is born, everything happens so fast — lights, voices, that long-awaited cry 💕
But between your baby’s first breath and the moment the cord is cut, there’s a pause — one that can make a big difference.
That pause is called delayed cord clamping — waiting a little longer before cutting the cord that’s been your baby’s lifeline for months.

🌸 So, what’s the rush?
By waiting just 30–60 seconds (or even a couple of minutes), your baby can receive up to 30% more blood from the placenta — rich in oxygen, iron, and stem cells.
It’s nature’s last gift before your baby starts life earthside. 🌍💗
As long as you and baby are stable, there’s no need to hurry.
Hold your baby.
Take a breath.
Let that moment belong to you both.

👶🏽 The research is clear:
That small delay can mean…
✨ Higher iron levels
✨ Better circulation
✨ Fewer transfusions
✨ Stronger start in life
Sometimes, the most powerful thing we can do is wait.

💫 As you plan your birth, ask your care team about delayed cord clamping.
It’s not about doing more — it’s about doing less, and letting nature finish what it started.
Maybe you say a prayer.
Whisper a poem.
Or simply hold your baby close — still connected, heart to heart. ❤️
Because the best beginnings don’t need to be rushed.

On call life means that you’re on call 24/7. You can get called out during family dinner or in the middle of the night (as was the case last night at 3:23 am).
Today I was lucky and had a beautiful swift birth & (highly recommend him! Amazing bedside manners and overall a great provider) with a first time mom (who did so awesome bringing her son earth side). Just love my 💛✨

Oxytocin is a shy hormone and birth is an event that needs high levels of oxytocin and feeling safe is very important. That was the lesson we learned during this birth. Also not all care providers are created equal so choose wisely! Just know that you feeling safe and trusting your provider is key for your birth.
