Birth Stories
Acacia and Ameena’s Birth Story – A “Home” Birth of Twins
When Caleb and I were dating, I started on the quest of researching natural birth control options. I wasn’t at all interested in repeating the experience of chemical birth control and all of its side effects. We attended a Natural Family Planning class and read Taking Charge of Your Fertility. I looked up from the […]
Malachi’s Birth Story (Angela’s First Homebirth)
As Birth Story Month comes to a close here on the WTG blog, I’ve decided to include my own birth stories as well. They definitely play into my story of becoming a midwife, but more importantly, they are a huge part of who I am as a whole, and the journey that I am on. […]
Canon’s Birth Story
This sweet couple came to us during their second pregnancy. It was so fun to watch their transformation over the months that we were together and into becoming a family of four. We cover a ton of information in our prenatal visits and one of our topics is on nutrition. Sometimes it’s old hat, sometimes it’s […]
Piper’s Birth Story
Shannon and Matt were my only doula clients in 2011. I had said I would only accept the occasional repeat client, as I was so busy with my midwifery internship. But they had a sweet sparkle in their eyes, we had that instant connection, and I couldn’t resist. I am so blessed to have worked […]
Quinn’s Birth Story
I do love a good VBAC story! And, this family was so fun to work with — down to earth and all 3 of them have a great sense of humor. It’s such a privilege to share in this journey. It’s not always easy, but it’s ever so sweet. Congratulations on your accomplishment! Quinn’s Birth Story […]
Twins 5 and The Birth Project
In our house, we celebrate “Birthday Week” instead of just the day, which works out really well when we have twin birthdays to celebrate. It gives us lots of opportunities to reflect, honor, bless, and eat cake. So, this week, we are celebrating our twin girls, Acacia and Ameena. If you don’t know this, most […]
Natural Birth and Chiropractic Care
I had the amazing opportunity to attend the Trust Birth Conference in Redondo Beach, CA. I went into the conference with a general belief that I do trust birth. I came away from the conference having met some amazing women who not only trust birth, but who truly stand for the truth. I’m still processing […]

Denver Health Midwives
I love attending births at Denver Health with their amazing midwife team, headed by Eliza Johnson. For whatever reason, I have attended very long labors with clients, in the care of these lovely midwives. And time after time, laboring mamas are made to feel safe, well-supported, honored, and empowered. Recently, I was called to support […]
