Seed of Life Homebirth

Heather Rice, CNM

Is Homebirth for me?

The answer may be yes if….

  • you want a low intervention, non-medicated birth.

  • you want to be in charge of your pregnancy and birth while following safe evidence-based care.

  • you view pregnancy and birth as normal and not a medical emergency.

Why a Midwife

Just a few of the reasons include:

  • Midwives provide individualized care.

  • Midwives minimalize medical interventions.

  • Midwives treat pregnancy and birth as a normal process.

  • Midwives include the entire family in the pregnancy and birth.

  • “Just as a woman's heart knows how and when to pump, her lungs to inhale, and her hand to pull back from fire, so she knows when and how to give birth."

    – Virginia Di Orio

  • “Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers-strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength."

    – Barbara Katz Rothman
