I have done my best to put together a comprehensive website that not only details the services that I provide, but gives you an abundance of information on topics such as Homebirth, Hospital Birth, Family/Freebirth, Midwives, Doulas, Breastfeeding, Placental Benefits and much more. As a midwife serving the Texoma area, it is my desire to prompt each and every parent to research and educate themselves on the various topics surrounding birth and the options that are available to them. Ultimate responsibility for the decisions made throughout your birth experience lie with you. I hope you will find the information here to be informative and encouraging as you begin to author your very own birth story.A Word about Undisturbed Birth The truth is that when left alone, most births can progress in a natural state. Bodily chemicals and hormones work well together when not interrupted and birth can progress freely and without inhibitions. Uninhibited birth is natural birth in its rawest form. Every time a mother's labor is interrupted for the purposes of routine documentation or for the sake of a care provider's convenience the natural process has been disturbed and a mother begins to question her instincts. She begins to no longer listen to her body and her baby and believes that she needs an outside authority to tell her how to birth. All this is nothing more than an interruption of natural birth. How can we own birth when we are waiting for some outside authority���s permission to do what our bodies are designed to do? I encourage you to read and research all you can before the arrival of your precious miracle. The more we understand about our bodies and the more in-tune we are with our babies the more we will begin to trust ourselves again and enjoy the benefits of experiencing an undisturbed birth.
