Life On The Inside
 

 Christian Homebirth Midwife

Have you been praying for a Christian Midwife, who provides prenatal care, supports you in your physiological labor and birth, whether water birth or land birth, as well as 6 weeks of postpartum care for you and babe?  

 

Life on the inside is what matters through the different areas of our being. Whether it be the babe within your womb, your health emotionally or physically and your relationship with our Creator, others, and yourself; it all takes place on the inside!

The Life On The Inside 

From Ranelle

As a very young girl, the passion of babies, pregnancy, and birth was very evident and present! The passion continues as a Christian Midwife supporting births at home.   My goal is to help you have a successful and positive birth, wherever that might be:

 

I am happy to help you birth…….

 

At a house

With a mouse

 

In a moat

With a goat.

 

In a bog,

With a log

 

At a farm,

That has charm.

 

However, in my 25+ years’ experience supporting in multiple places with multiple providers, it can be said without hesitation that I have seen the positive impact and amazing experiences with mamas and daddies giving birth at home with the model of midwifery care. 

 

Do you know the different models of care?  Who knew there really was a difference in how to have a babe as well as the prenatal and postnatal care? Let’s discuss.  Typically there are three options:  hospital, birth center, and home birth.  The model of care looks different in all three.  In the book, “Heart & Hands” by Elizabeth Davis she states that anthropologist Robbie Davis-Floyd has identified three such paradigms: technocratic, humanistic , and holistic. 

In holistic, as Midwives we look at the whole you - physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually!  You, yes YOU, are valued!

 

If you have ever considered home birth, but don’t think you could, or don’t think it’s safe, or don’t think you are up for it……….or, whatever, allow me to spend 30min with you, not trying to convince you, but to empower you to be able to make the best decision you can for you and your family.

 

I have been at over 800 births, over the past 25+ years, and I have witnessed many, many women, who didn’t think they could give birth no matter the place.  Period.  It is normal  to have doubts, yet once they had the information, childbirth education, the facts, along with the support and model of care with the umbrella large concept, they did amazingly.  It is always encouraged to visit with others who have given birth at home and gain their perspective.  Might this be you?

While I support you wherever you give birth, whether it is on a boat, or float or with a tote or around the moat and indeed help you note that God is good, might I encourage you to consider home. 

Home is where it all begins!
