The Beauty of the Midwifery Model:
"I accidentally stumbled upon 'the Sanctuary' through Dr Fischbein who
agreed upon taking me under his pre-natal care after becoming pregnant
again.
After meeting the midwives and despite our insurance not covering their care, my husband and I decided it was worth every saved penny we had, to 'invest'in the hope for a natural birth or the so
called VBAC ( vaginal birth after c section).
Much credit is usually given to the mom when she accomplishes the birth of her baby and rightly so; but what about the persons who make it possible?
From the very first prenatal care at The Sanctuary, I was given wings.
Dr. Fischbein reassured me from the very beginning that the risks of a
homebirth are no different than those of a hospital one. My chances were
in fact the same, but he always urged me to choose the environment that
would make me feel the safest. Through the words and encouragement of my midwives Aleks, Molly, Heather, Sheila, Katie and Marina I started to
envision the birth I desired and every time a doubt or a fear came
knocking at my door, they gave me the tools to defeat them.
From childbirth classes to siblings' preparation to the most amazing
spiritual healing chiropractor, Maura. These women read my mind and my
soul; they took my hand and guided me to the final battle against my
deepest fears. They are so deeply involved and passionate about their
mission that they made my success their personal victory.
These wonderful women understand and love the human body so much to trust that it can birth another human body. I mean, that's what they do everyday. They witness the miracle of life. The awesomeness of a body creating another body. A tiny little person who asks and needs just the right amount of time to be perfect and complete to come out.
Lately, I find myself fantasizing to be pregnant again just so that I can keep on seeing my midwives every week. I miss them and I fell in love with each
of them. As soon as Mathis was born, Heather Ann told me that this is
the hardest and most empowering experience I will ever have and that I
won't ever have to repeat it if I don't want to. Well, I would. Every
single moment of it. I would not change a contraction or a breath, I would not change a stitch. I would not change a thing, as long as my loving midwives were there with me."
All my love and blessings,
Diana
