On the making of fathers

With the first breath that your baby takes I see your whole existance shift. Fatherhood is your soul’s birthright and I see you take it on, effortlessly, and without hesitation. When you hold your baby for the first time I see profound and deep devotion in your eyes. I see every doubt and fear fall away as you allow this new and beautiful vulnerability to grow alongside the steady strength that was always there.

When I look at your wife I see how watching this transformation in you has deepened her love for you and for the family you both have created.

Since Bailey Bailey Peterson is on her (well deserved) time off I found someone else to help out. Lol.

Midwifery is not a 9-5 life. It’s an “O2 tanks are low so let’s swing over and get them filled on our way home from the gym” kinda life. Thankfully Eliott is in his helping mama era.

This moment of “almost done” of “almost there” when our bodies are close to pushing. I see and hear and feel a shift and change happening in a woman’s voice, in the way her body responds and moves through each contraction, it’s like her baby is speaking through her, “I am almost in your arms mama, you got this, just a little bit more, just a few more breaths.”

According to the International Confederation of Midwives, the world is facing a shortage of 1 million midwives. Women, babies, and families across the globe are suffering from a lack of skilled, compassionate care — care that midwives can provide, and care that midwives should be providing. We must do better for the families of the world. The world needs more midwives.

Over the past three years, I have had an incredible student in my practice. To me, midwifery is holy work. It is sacred work — work you must feel deeply called to do. You have to hold a genuine love for caring for and serving others in your heart.

Bailey has the heart, soul, and hands of a midwife.

And as of this month, the world is now only short 999,999 midwives 🙌🏽💛 Bailey is officially a California Licensed Midwife and will be joining my practice.

There are so many beautiful benefits to having a two-midwife practice. Our families will be even more supported, cared for, and held through their journeys. I cannot fully put into words what it means to have a midwifery partner with whom I can share all the beautiful, silly, and hard moments this work brings.

I love you, Bailey

With their first birth it was just the two of them and myself. That first birth is such an intimate experience between a husband and wife, their family just starting to grow. With this second pregnancy they saw it as a beautiful invention to include their first born. He came to most of our appointments, helping us measure and listen to sister’s heartbeat. During the labor he came in and out of the birth room checking on his mama. When it came time to welcome his sister into the world he curled into his dads lap and watched in wonder as baby came out. When his mama asked if he wanted to touch his sister he immediately went to hold her hand. Homebirth at it’s sweetest.
