I can't believe that it has been almost a year since I last blogged... I really wanted to blog more, but life ran away from me. I have since lost over 50 pounds , supervised at least 50 births and learned huge life lessons. I think I won't give up on this and continue to try to find the time to blog. As far as midwifery is concerned, I have gained so much knowledge as to who I am and how I view birth. Due to the craziness of losing the kids and other life changes, I find myself back in good 'ol Arkansas. Arkansas - a state where Doctors are smart and midwives are stupid, hospital births are the only safe way to birth, VBACS Twins and Breeches are illegal, and there are more unlicensed midwives than licensed. It's not that I am in the backwoods more than there is too much backwards ways of thinking in the birth realm....sigh. I will probably go back and forth and blog births from El Paso and experiences there as I continue to blog here. I miss El Paso...well I think I miss the culture...I have only been here for a few weeks but it feels like EP was months ago. I have new and exciting changes to look forward to. God has a large sense of humor with me ... I know that this is where I need to be. Birth is different and the same no matter what, so I look forward to what more I have to learn . I hope I can make it here.
