Sunshine Birth Company

Big sister meeting baby — before baby is even born. 🥹

When older siblings get to come to prenatal visits, hear the heartbeat, and feel the kicks, something magical happens. They start to understand. They start to bond. They start to feel like part of the team.

It also helps with the transition after baby arrives — they've already "met" their sibling many times.

This is one of the gifts of midwifery care: birth isn't separate from family life. It's woven right in.

These hands have caught a lot of babies. 🤲

One of my favorite parts of prenatal care is belly mapping — using gentle palpation to feel where baby's head, back, and bottom are positioned.

Why does it matter?
👶 It helps us know how baby is growing
👶 We can spot positioning early and use techniques to encourage optimal alignment for birth
👶 It's a beautiful way for YOU to connect with your baby in real time

Hands-on care isn't a luxury — it's the foundation of midwifery. ✨

Ever wondered what actually happens at a prenatal visit with a midwife? 🤰

Here's a peek:
✔️ Listening to baby's heart tones with a doppler
✔️ Measuring your belly (fundal height)
✔️ Reviewing labs & any test results together
✔️ Checking blood pressure, weight, urine
✔️ Talking through nutrition, sleep, movement, and how YOU are feeling
✔️ Time to ask every single question on your list

No rushing. No 10-minute slot. Just you, baby, and your midwife.

Birth is sacred. Your care should reflect that.

From Wise County, west towards Lubbock, and north to the Oklahoma border—families are discovering what it means to birth with true continuity of care. Prenatal visits at my office in Decatur, a home visit at 37 weeks for home birth families, your birth on your terms, and postpartum support that includes a home visit at 24-48 hours and newborn care through 6 weeks.

North Texas families: you don't have to choose between safety and empowerment. You can have both.

Serving a 2-hour radius with home births.

If you don't know your options, you don't have any. Let's change that.

Here’s something most people aren’t told:

✨ You have the right to decline any procedure. Any. Of. Them. ✨

Informed consent isn’t a checkbox.
It’s not a rushed signature on a form handed to you mid-contraction.

Real informed consent means:
• You understand the recommendation
• You know the risks of accepting it
• You know the risks of declining it
• You are free to choose — without pressure or coercion

If your provider is offended that you asked questions… that’s information.

“If you don’t know your options, you don’t have any.”

Find a provider who actually wants you informed. 💛

Here’s something the system won’t tell you:

✨ Continuity of care changes outcomes.

When the same midwife walks with you through prenatal visits, birth, and postpartum, she knows you.
Your history. Your fears. Your goals. 🤍

That knowledge isn’t just personal.
It’s clinical. 🩺
It’s protective. 🛡️

Fragmented, shift-based care may be the norm in obstetrics.
It doesn’t have to be yours.

Midwife-led community care isn’t a trend.
It’s evidence. 📊
It’s what physiologic birth looks like when it’s supported the way it was meant to be. 🌿

Do your research. 🔍
Know your options.
Choose accordingly. ✨

✨ She came in with a list of questions she’d been told were “too much.”

At previous appointments she had been dismissed — talked over, handed a pamphlet, reassured without actually being heard. By the time she found Sunshine Birth Company, she had almost started to believe her instincts were wrong.

They weren’t. 💛

So we sat down with her list.
Every single question.

We talked through what her body was already doing beautifully, and what her real options looked like. We took the time to make sure she understood, felt confident, and felt supported.

By the end of that first visit, something had shifted.

She wasn’t just a patient anymore.
She was a woman who knew her birth. 🌿

That’s what informed care looks like.

✨ No question is too much.
✨ No family is too complicated.
✨ You deserve a midwife who makes time for you.

Let me tell you what continuity of care actually costs a midwife… and I mean that in the best possible way. 🤍

My social life is planned in pencil. ✏️
Every commitment I make comes with a silent disclaimer: I will be there… unless a baby is coming.

Because when labor starts, nothing else matters. 👶
That is not a sacrifice. That is the job I chose and the calling I love.

I have also developed what my family generously calls a superpower. 🦸‍♀️
I can fall asleep anywhere, wake up at 2am to a ringing phone 📞, assess a laboring mother clearly and completely, decide she has a few more hours… and be back asleep before my head hits the pillow again.

This is what it looks like when a provider is truly committed to you.

Not a shift.
Not a rotation.
One midwife.
Your midwife. Every time.

That is what the evidence supports. 📚
That is what families deserve. 🤍
