Breastfeeding, though a natural process, may take time and lots of patience to establish a good latch, recognize hunger cues, and alleviate any breastfeeding challenges.
Choosing the appropriate place to birth your child…
is an important decision. In the United States the vast majority of women choose to birth in a hospital setting because most Americans consider the hospital to be the safer place to birth or the only legal place to birth. This is not true. For many women, birthing at home with a qualified and experienced care provider is a safe and legal option.
Giving birth to a child in the comfort of your own home is a wonderful experience. Surrounded by the people and environment a woman enjoys most in her life helps maintain a positive outcome and keeps anxiety and fears to a minimum.
At Spirit of Life we understnd that pregnancy and childbirth are normal, natural, healthy events in a woman’s life… a time of tremendous growth and discovery. Midwives have been attending women during pregnancy and birth since the beginning of time. as a Midwife Sheila honor childbirth as a rite of passage, a celebration of life!!

Good nutrition during pregnancy, and enough of it, is very important for
your baby to grow and develop. You should consume about 300 more calories per
day than you did before you became pregnant.
Maintaining a regular exercise routine throughout your pregnancy can help you stay healthy and feel your best. Regular exercise during pregnancy can improve your posture and decrease some common discomforts such as backaches and fatigue. There is evidence that physical activity may prevent gestational diabetes (diabetes that develops during pregnancy), relieve stress, and build more stamina needed for labor and delivery.
