Prenatal Midwifery Care
I offer both prenatal and postpartum midwifery care for families planning a hospital birth. This care can also be a good fit for those still undecided about their prenatal and birth care plans, people visiting or new to the area, or families planning a move mid-pregnancy.
Prenatal midwifery care
Prenatal midwifery care options range from homebirth-style midwifery care throughout your pregnancy, to a handful of planned appointments at key times, to stand-alone individual appointments focused on specific needs or topics. This prenatal care is provided as a supplement to regularly scheduled primary prenatal care with your main provider.
Prenatal care includes:
1-1.5 hour prenatal appointments with plenty of time to discuss your full experience of pregnancy and the many physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, relationship, and identity changes that make up your individual and family experiences.
Discussing any current concerns, reviewing and discussing any upcoming screening or testing options, and talking through the common questions, considerations, and experiences of your current pregnancy phase.
Holistic care recommendations for sleep, nutrition, pregnancy aches and pains, and other common issues that arise in pregnancy.
Partners, friends, relatives, older siblings, and family of all kinds are always welcome at your appointments whenever you want to include them.
The option to do any standard pregnancy laboratory testing during our appointments, through my account with Quest Diagnostics. This can include any routine labwork ordered by your primary prenatal care provider, with results automatically being sent to them as well.
Connection to individualized resources and referral recommendations including educational, movement, mental health, and other care modalities such as chiropractic and acupuncture.
An extensive lending library with books you can borrow throughout our care together.
