.....Wendyrful Births.....

I believe that God Created Women with this amazing design and the ability to help create lives. I do not believe he would have created us with the intention that we should fail. Trust Birth, Trust your body, Educate yourself on what is possible, and I hope that you too can have wonderful births.

~Quotes~

"Never avoid researching an important decision because you are afraid you won't like what you'll find and then be faced with a difficult choice. The bliss of ignorance is fleeting. It is far easier to make a difficult decision with all the information knowing you chose the best you could than live a lifetime with the agony of regret that cannot be erased." ~Kellinjoe Crawford

I have been married to my sweetheart for 20 years, and am the mother of 6 children, 5 girls, and one son, that keep me busy. Between family and working with moms at their births, Church callings, and life, I keep pretty busy.

Birth Quotes

  • The best way out is always through! By: Robert Frost
  • To remain silent and indifferent is the greatest sin of all. By: Elie Wiesel, Nobel Prize Winner
  • "Choosing whether to have a vaginal delivery or an elective caesarean section is based on the premise that these two choices are essentially equivalent, but this is simply not true." By: Eugene Declercq, a professor of maternal and child health at Boston University School of Public Health
  • A pushed birth is one that is induced, sped up, and/or heavily medicated for no good reason, and all too often concludes with surgery, invasive instruments, an episiotomy, or a bad vaginal tear — outcomes you don’t want. Decades of research show that the healthiest birth for you and your baby — and that means your partner, your family, and your community — is a normal, vaginal birth with minimal intervention and maximum support. By: Jennifer Block Author of 'Pushed'
  • "God intended motherhood to be a relay race. Each generation would pass the baton to the next. But the baton has been fumbled. So, it's our job--yours and mine--to pick it up. We have to do more than follow in our mother's footsteps; we have to rediscover the lost art of mothering." By: Mary Pride
