Midwife Musings

I am a Certified Nurse Midwife. I am creating this blog as a way to journal my births - for my own personal and professional growth and to share the beauty of normal birth. My faith walk is very much tied up with midwifery. Midwifery has taught me just about everything I've learned about God. Update-now that it's been nearly 2 years since God allowed me to practice as a midwife, I have found that He reveals Himself in MANY ways if we seek Him. And he has been teaching me to seek Him, regardless of what work he calls me to. New update, I've been working as a "real" nurse midwife for a year and this blog has "morphed" into sharing my journey through life, whether it be from home, work, family. LIFE teaches us, not just our life work.

Just Thinkin

Just missing birth tonight. Wondering if I'll ever catch babies again....I've had to learn to listen for and find God in other mediums lately. Happy to say, He is there. Feeling very blessed by His presence and grateful for the work he is doing in my life and my family.

Thinking of finding a place to go do short term midwifery work this coming year. Learning to be content in "the path chosen for me" Psalm 25:12,13 "Who then is the woman that fears the Lord? He will instruct her in the way chosen for her. She will spend her days in prosperity and her children will inherit the land." Now that's a good promise!
