Spring in Oregon means the nettles are back 🌿
This little patch has become one of my favorite places to harvest each year.
During pregnancy, many over-the-counter allergy medications are considered safe, but sometimes it’s nice to have gentle plant support too. Nettles have long been loved for seasonal allergy support, and they’re one of our favorite spring allies during pregnancy.
They’re also the very first ingredient in our NORA Tea 💕

Found this photo from my early midwifery days in Austin and instantly wondered how old this baby is now — probably 25! There’s something really special about looking back on all the families and little lives I’ve had the privilege of caring for over the years. 🤍

After many meaningful years of working together, we are transitioning out of our formal partnership. We will continue caring for clients as Fig partners through the end of the year.

While we will no longer be business partners, we remain deeply supportive of one another and will continue to collaborate in birth work moving forward.

We are so grateful for what we’ve built together and for the families we’ve had the honor to serve. That foundation will continue, just in a new structure. Meredith will continue as Fig Midwifery, and Crystal has begun a new practice, Elowen Midwifery.

If Crystal has been part of your care, we would love your support as she grows this next chapter. Please consider leaving a Google review, following along on Instagram, or sharing photos you’re comfortable with her using for marketing. Thank you for your support!

We had 8 Fig babies in December (well, the last one was born in the early morning hours of Jan 1st), which is a lot for us! I was excited to make these holiday garlands from dried citrus and spices, but since we were so busy I didn’t get to it until January 3rd. Better late than never, I’m going to enjoy these in my window all of January ~Meredith

Something that makes us unique at Fig is our team approach.
Last week we wrapped up a final postpartum visit with a family we’ve supported through the birth of all four of their children. She calls us her birth village, and we love that.

We’re three midwives who work together to care for you and your growing family. Our model keeps us balanced and grounded, so we can show up fully for every birth we attend. Every client receives care that’s personal, thoughtful, and compassionate.

When one of us is at your birth, you can trust the others know your story, your hopes, and your heart. And even if we’re not the one at your birth, we still get to see you postpartum; giving you the benefit of our different backgrounds and perspectives. It’s truly value added for everyone.

We all have families, too, and our team model allows us to be fully present at home while staying committed to this work. Midwives experience a high rate of burnout, and our approach is intentional: we want to serve this community for many years to come.

Our annual FIG Family Potluck filled our hearts.

It’s such a gift to gather with past, present, and future clients — to see familiar faces, growing bellies, and little ones thriving. We’re so grateful for this beautiful community that continues to grow and connect.

Exciting announcement: We finally convinced Micki to come back!! 🥳
For those of you who are new, we want to introduce you to Micki. She was our former student who has now graduated and become a newly licensed midwife here in Oregon. She will be assisting us one week per month for the next 6-12 months. For those of you that know her, you can attest to how excited we are for this collaboration.

While she is on call she will also be assisting us with some prenatals and postpartum visits. She is looking forward to meeting all of the new faces and seeing some familiar faces!
Welcome back Micki!
