Even the most high-tech ultrasound can’t prepare

Even the most high-tech ultrasound can’t prepare you for seeing your baby’s face in person. It’s truly incredible to look at the little person you have created and see your features and your partner’s features melded into one perfect little face. Watching moments like these is one of the many reasons we love what we do here at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers.

Breastfeeding in the first hour after birth is one

Breastfeeding in the first hour after birth is one of the practices we encourage at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers. This time, known sometimes as the Golden Hour, is when the baby is alert and is ready to begin breastfeeding. Using this hour to start breastfeeding can lead to more success with breastfeeding in the future. We encourage the women we work with to ask us any questions they have about breastfeeding, as it can be more complicated than one might think.

Car seats can come with steep learning curves for first-time parents. We here at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers suggest getting familiar with your car seat BEFORE your little one arrives. Make sure it’s installed correctly and familiarize yourself with getting it in and out of the car smoothly. Small things like a car seat can add to overwhelm for first-time parents. Preparing for even the small things can make becoming a parent a little less chaotic.

Newborn stretches aren’t just cute to look at.

Newborn stretches aren’t just cute to look at. These adorable stretches are helping your newborn learn all about their bodies, as well as the life on the outside. Stretching helps a newborn’s muscles and joints start to move and work, and can also help with digestion and breathing, all of which are new to them. For any and all questions about anything to do with your pregnancy or postpartum, contact the expert midwives at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers.

Your little one should be able to hold their head

Your little one should be able to hold their head up on their own sometime between 3 and 4 months of age. Usually, by 6 months, they have mastered keeping their noggin steady. Here at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers, we recommend tummy time to help your little one build up the strength to hold up their heads. Start with only a few minutes a day and gradually increase the time spent on their tummies. For any and all questions about your pregnancy, or even your newborn, contact our expert midwives at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers.

Look at all that hair! Newborns really run the gamut as far as hair goes. Whether they’re totally bald when they’re born, or come out with a mohawk, it’s natural and completely adorable. At Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers, we have seen all kinds of newborns ‘do’s. Whatever hair your newborn is born with (or without if they’re bald), don’t get too used to it. Most newborns lose the hair they are born with in the first 6 months of life. This baby hair is then replaced by permanent hair. Make sure you take plenty of pics of that newborn hair, or lack of hair because it will change fast.

The precious moments after labor and the delivery

The precious moments after labor and the delivery of your new little one make everything you’ve been through as a pregnant woman, completely worth it.

Here at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers, we think pregnancy is such a beautiful and empowering time in a woman’s life. It is truly incredible what a woman’s body is capable of, and pregnancy really celebrates that.

Skin-to-skin contact is especially important right

Skin-to-skin contact is especially important right after birth. At Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers, we place your baby directly on your chest, so you and your baby can be skin-to-skin as soon as possible. Not only do you get a good look at your baby you’ve waited so long to finally meet, but it has some incredible health benefits as well.

Skin-to-skin helps to promote the production of breast milk. The hormones that are released during skin-to-skin encourage the mother's body to start producing breastmilk right away.

It’s healthy for your baby to feel your skin as it stabilizes their body temperature, blood sugar, breathing, oxygen levels, and heart rate. Your baby just went through a pretty incredible journey, so getting settled is important as soon as possible.

Placing the baby directly on their mom’s skin can be helpful to the mother's health as well. It can reduce bleeding, blood pressure, and the stress hormones that have been activated through labor and delivery.

Yawning, rubbing their eyes, drooping eyelids, and

Yawning, rubbing their eyes, drooping eyelids, and a blank stare can be common signs that your little one is tired. The last thing you want is for tiredness to go to overtired, which can involve a lot of restlessness and crying. Recognizing your baby’s signals and signs for when tiredness is setting in and it’s time for a nap will help to keep them from becoming overtired. Newborn sleep can be complicated and can come with many questions from exhausted parents. The expert midwives at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers are here to answer any questions you may have.

One of the most effective tools the midwives at Haven Midwifery and Birth Center use is one of the most simple. An exercise ball, or birthing ball, can be a big help while pregnant, and during labor. Many women find it comforting and comfortable to rock with their contractions on the ball while in labor. The ball helps them to position themselves upright, letting gravity assist in delivering the baby. Just one of the many tools used by our experienced and expert midwives here at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers.

There are all kinds of activities you can do with

There are all kinds of activities you can do with your newborn to help their cognitive development. Here are some of the things we suggest at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers.

- Explore the outdoors with walks. Baby carriers or strollers are a great way for your new little one to experience outside while still feeling safe and secure.

- Give your baby different things to look at. Baby gyms and mobiles can help your newborn to learn about colors and movement. 20-30 centimeters away from their face is ideal, as their eyesight isn’t great yet.

- Read nursery rhymes or lullabies to your baby. Babies learn through repetition, so reading a few favorites over and over is great for their developing brains.

- Listen to different sounds. Whether it’s music, birds, or even wind chimes, this helps your little one get used to all of their new senses that are more intense outside the womb.

- Rock with your newborn in a rocking chair. The movement can sometimes help to soothe newborns.

We encourage mothers and families to enjoy as much of their newborn time as they can. The days are fleeting and you’ll find yourself longing for them. Contact the expert midwives at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers for all of your newborn needs and questions.

Many newborns use finger or thumb sucking as a self-soothing mechanism. While it is completely normal, it can also be a sign that your newborn is developing well. Sucking on their own fingers can be calming and soothing to your baby and can help them to fall asleep on their own. Usually sucking on their fingers or thumb isn’t a cause for concern at all. If you have any questions or concerns about your newborn, contact us at Haven Midwifery and Birth Centers. We are happy to help with any questions you may have.

One of the reasons so many women choose Haven Midw

One of the reasons so many women choose Haven Midwifery and Birth Center is because we encourage women to labor in the ways they chose to. At a traditional hospital, women are usually confined to a bed and not free to walk around or even take a shower. At either of the two Haven Birth Centers, we encourage women to use movement to help with labor. We want the women we work with to feel empowered through their labor, and for them to labor in the ways that make them the most comfortable and seem the most natural to them.

When you choose Haven Midwifery and Birth Center f

When you choose Haven Midwifery and Birth Center for your prenatal care and labor and delivery assistance, your baby never leaves your side for newborn exams. Right after you give birth, your baby goes right on your chest, so they can hear your heartbeat, which is familiar to them and naturally soothing. While holding your newborn, they listen to and feel your heartbeat, which helps them to feel safe and secure and makes it easier for them to fall asleep and stay asleep.
