Waterbirth- Nature’s Epidural?

AE Johnsdottir June 11, 2015 Corvallis Midwife Blog Leave a Comment

Have you ever gotten into a hot bath or jacuzzi after a vigorous workout? If you have, you probably remember how the water soothed your aching muscles and melted away any tension that you felt. Giving birth is a lot like a vigorous workout, and the pain (sometimes) experienced in both is the result of your healthy muscles working hard! Numerous studies …

I chose Ash as my midwife and I can say with great confidence I made the right choice!! This was my second birth and I wanted to do it at home and natural! My first birth wasn’t terrible or traumatic, but there were some things I wanted to do differently than my first! Ash was very supportive with the decisions I made during my pregnancy and birth! I love how she’s pro organic and into herbal medicine! She was very informative and reassured me whenever I had fears about my birth. I had the BEST natural birth experience thanks to her!!! I’m just so over the moon with how well my natural birth experience was! I highly recommend Ash as your midwife if you want a natural home birth and are into herbal medicine! She’s just to great!! ♥️?

Ash is the best! She was extremely informative, caring, professional, and organized. Knowing our child would be born into her hands, provided our family with the confidence necessary to have a successful, life-changing at-home birth. Thanks Ash!!!

Ash is wonderful. She takes time to explain things to make sure her clients can make informed decisions. She also had a wealth of knowledge for all the resources I needed!

Ash is absolutely wonderful!
She was always sure to make me comfortable during each visit, and during my labor she was wonderful!
I am the type of person who wants personal space and she was very respectful of that.
As an LGBT couple we were a bit nervous about finding the right midwife who would be accepting and she was just that!
I have recommended her to several friends already and I will continue to recommend her!

We enjoyed relaxed informative prenatal visits with Ash. She took the time to explain the pregnancy and birth process. We felt very prepared and supported. Ash also encouraged good life style choices throughout the pregnancy and we now have a very healthy baby. For us, having our baby at home was the right choice and Ash was instrumental in making that successful.
