Recently we asked several of our Spirit of LIfe Midwifery homebirth mothers and other midwives four questions on the subject of midwifery as part of our celebration of International Day of the Midwife on May 5th. This is the response that we received from Leslie Whelan Cliff, a homebirth mother who answered the following questions:
• What can we learn from indigenous cultures about the sacredness of birth?
• Midwifery is available to mothers in Florida, what would be the impact on families and mothers if this were made illegal as in some other states?
• What is your favorite birth story that you have experienced? What is the importance of storytelling during the birth experience?
• What was your single greatness moment of personal triumph during your homebirth or water birth experience? Looking back on it now, how did it empower you as a women?
Thank you Leslie for your thoughtful insight and advocacy of home birth and midwifery!
