Hey sisters! This week you get a bonus episode — and trust me, it’s a good one. On Monday, we talked all about what a doula is (and why that matters even before you get pregnant). Today, we’re diving into the next big question: What is a midwife? And how does a midwife compare to an OB? If you’re like me, maybe you didn’t even know midwives existed outside of “old-fashioned” stories — until God opened my eyes. After experiencing OB care through my miscarriages and even into my third trimester with my rainbow baby, I finally learned there was another option.

Episode Highlights:

• What a midwife actually is


• The difference between OBs and midwives


• Why your care model really matters — even before you're pregnant


• How midwives support things naturally, while OBs are trained in disease and intervention


• The types of midwives: CNMs vs CPMs (and what each one is trained in)


• What my own experience switching from an OB to a home birth midwife was like — and why it was so different

You’ll hear about Midwife RX, a telehealth option I recommend for those needing progesterone prescriptions or early care. We’ll also talk about how midwives can serve you pre-conception, not just during pregnancy. And if you take away just one thing today, let it be this: You have options. And those options are worth exploring with prayer and intention.

🌿 Whether you’re TTC, newly pregnant, or just doing your research — you’ll walk away with so much more clarity after this one.

If this blessed you, would you do me a huge favor? 👉 Leave a review or share this with a friend. It helps more sisters find the show and feel empowered, encouraged, and not alone in this journey.

In His Good Grace,
