We Never Get Tired of Seeing This. 💛 We will never get tired of watching husbands love and support their wives through labor. The hand holding. The back rubs. The whispered encouragement. The water bottles being held at just the right moment. The forehead kisses between contractions. The “You’re doing amazing.” The “I’m right here.” The quiet moments when words aren't even necessary. Labor can be intense, emotional, exhausting, and incredibly powerful. And having someone bes

If you or anyone you know is in need of breastmilk please call us at 214-924-4360 to set up a time to get some! We all know breast milk is often called “liquid gold,” but what makes it so special?

Six week Post Partum Visits bring joy and sadness, joy because we get to see our client and their baby thrive and sadness because it is technically our last visit with mom and baby. We always say to message us for a "Just Because Visit" so we can catch up with you and your baby as they grow.

One of our favorite prenatal milestones is the 36-week home visit for our clients who have chosen to birth at home! During this visit, we come to your home to become familiar with your birth space before labor begins. We'll learn the best route to your house, talk through where you plan to labor and give birth, identify the ideal setup for your birth supplies, and answer any last-minute questions you or your partner may have. This visit helps everyone feel more prepared and c

One Less Thing to Worry About Preparing for a new baby comes with a lot of excitement... and a lot of to-do lists. There are nursery decisions to make, baby clothes to wash, a car seat to install, and so many little things to think about before your little one arrives. One of those things is making sure you have a breast pump if you plan to breastfeed. The good news? As a client of Blessed Joy Midwifery Birth Center, we'll help you order your breast milk pump through your ins

Clinic Days Are Our Favorite There is just something about clinic days that fills our hearts. The halls are full of pregnant mamas, newborn babies, toddlers exploring every corner, and excited siblings who can't wait to hear their baby's heartbeat. You'll hear laughter coming from one room and tiny newborn squeaks from another. Sometimes there are hugs. Sometimes there are tears. Sometimes there's relief after hearing, "Everything looks perfect." Every day is different, and t

Prenatal visits are a good excuse to leave the kids, grab a coffee (a small one, I don't want the midwives to come after me😂) and have some YOU time. Sometimes that's not possible so we love being a family birth center where Mamas are encouraged to bring their family for their appointments. We know how stressful it can be to always have a sitter so we like to ensure that your kids have something to keep them occupied with at Blessed Joy Midwifery Birth Center. Blessed Joy Mi

Placentas are absolutely amazing. The placenta is the ultimate multitasker!

One of the greatest blessings in midwifery care is the relationships built along the way. Yes, we love birth.Yes, we love babies.

Wow!!! Pumping is like a part time job but this mama is rocking it!! Did you know your body may begin producing colostrum before your baby is even born? Colostrum—the thick, golden first milk often called “liquid gold”—is packed with antibodies, nutrients, and immune support for your newborn. For some families, hand expressing and collecting colostrum during the final weeks of pregnancy can be a helpful tool in preparing for postpartum and feeding baby. Some potential benefit

One thing about birth work—there is a lot of waiting. And very little sitting normally. 😄 Midwife life means spending long hours together supporting families through labor, birth, postpartum, and everything in between. But unlike most jobs, our “office” can change by the hour: birth suites living rooms bathrooms hallways tubsides kitchen counters floors Especially floors. Lots of floors. At births, there is rarely a perfect chair nearby, and honestly, even if there is, most

Sheila had almost not gone shopping that day... The woman had just found out that she was pregnant, so you couldn’t tell by looking at her. There were people all around as she went to sit down on a chair and it moved from under her. No one else responded, but Sheila goes to help her and she says “I’m pregnant”. You could tell she was worried. Sheila says “I’m a Midwife, let’s get you up!” and takes the stance she uses everyday to help pregnant women. After successfully gettin

There is something incredibly special about caring for first-time parents. The excitement in their voices.The wonder in their questions.The way they already love someone they haven’t even met yet.

A Gentle, Hands-On Approach One of the beautiful things about fundal height measurement is how simple and personal it is. There are no machines, no screens—just hands, a measuring tape, and a growing belly. It creates an opportunity to connect, ask questions, and check in not only on baby’s growth, but on how you are feeling as well. In midwifery care, these moments matter. They remind us that pregnancy is not just something to be monitored—it’s something to be experienced, s
