101 reasons why I love being a midwife!

This last week I caught my 100th and 101th baby! This is a mile marker for me in my new life as a midwife. I'm in the three digits! I'm amazed at the opportunities I've had this last year and a half. I'm overwhelmed by how much I've learned and all that I've seen. But I'm also keenly aware of all that I have left to learn!

As many of you have noted... I am not writing the birth stories on my blog anymore. This is out of respect for their privacy. I'll be sharing stuff more anonymously and with pictures that don't have names. This is all very intentional. I hope you understand. Thank you for praying for me and my ministry here.

  1. Hi Stephanie!

    You don't know me, but I've browsed through your blog and loved seeing all the pictures and reading all your birth stories :) I spend 9 months in the Philippines last year with Mercy In Action, also as a part of my midwifery education. Loved every bit of it and miss it all like crazy.
    Keep up the good work and congrats on your 101st catch!! Woohoo!!

  2. I stumbled onto your blog about a year ago & love reading it. Your in my prayers & doing a wonderful thing! I am a mother of 4 beautiful boys (all delivered by midwives here in the States & everyone of them inspired me so much that I have decided to start into a "birthing" career. It will take time, I knw since I have a young family but I know that God will guide me in His timing.
    Love & prayers for you & your mission.
