#TipOfTheDay When you are in your third trimester, try to sleep on your left side.

Interprofessional placements are done! (I still have 3, 24hr OB shifts but we are not counting it). I love coming back to the hospital where I did my first clinical rotation. Very happy that I will be there for the next year as well. So what does a hospitalist midwife do? - First Assist in C-Sections - Triage assessments - Consulting with OB - Starting inductions - 2nd Midwife at a Birth - Assisting OB/Nursing/Peds if they are busy and need support - Participate in different codes We also have different programs that midwives run out of the hospital such as Family and Babies Clinic and Early Discharge Program. Which allows OB patients to receive midwifery care in the postpartum. I am excited to work with the fabulous hospitalist midwives again this year! #midwife #midwifeoftiktok #midwifelife #midwifehumor #midwifetok #midwifetiktok #midwifeproblems #midwifery #midwiferystudent #midwiferyschool #midwives #studentmidwife #toronto #ontario #canada #university #student #healthcare #fyp #medicalhumor #medicaltiktok #pregnancy #studentlife #birth #tmu
We are on our final placement ish (next placement is OB 3 shifts not sure if we are going to count it) for the semester. We are doing hospitalist midwifery. Where we do 12 hour shifts to support community midwives. We take pages, do triage assessment, and be the 2nd midwife at births. We also assist in c-sections and help cover the L&D floor. I am happy to be back at my OG hospital. I will also be here for senior year šš«¢ I am so proud of my hospital for continuing to surprise everyone with their great midwifery led initiatives! #midwife #midwifeoftiktok #midwifelife #midwifehumor #midwifetok #midwifetiktok #midwifeproblems #midwifery #midwiferystudent #midwiferyschool #midwives #studentmidwife #toronto #ontario #canada #university #student #healthcare #fyp #medicalhumor #medicaltiktok #pregnancy #studentlife #birth

NICU placement was a blast! Lots of learning experiences with going on transports, rounds, lactation, resuscitations, observing intubations, workshops, working with so many different teams and observing UVCs!

As we enter the final week of the 44 for 44 campaign, let's take a moment to reflect on a few more reasons to be a midwife. Why 44? The number 44 holds a dual significance for us. It symbolizes both the years of our schoolās existence and the birth year of our esteemed founder. It is a reminder of the enduring legacy of our institution and the vision that sparked its creation. The 44 for 44 campaign is rooted in the belief that it takes a village to overcome challenges. We invite you to be a vital part of this village, coming together to support our students during their moments of need. Your contribution, no matter the amount, will make a tangible difference in the lives of these aspiring midwives.

Happy Black History month! I think it was such a perfect timing to release @cbcgem For the Culture! Donāt you agree @amanda_parris ? Thank you for letting me be apart of such an important topic like Black Maternal Health. Bring awareness to this topic is so important. Make sure you all check out this wonderful series that @amanda_parris and her team put together. Hint youāll love episode 5 guys. šYouāll see one of your favourite student midwives.

These are the reasons student midwives begin this journey. These are the reasons why we need student midwives to complete their journey. Too often, however, amazing students have to take a detour in their education or even completely quit because of unexpected life circumstances. With the MCU Community Relief Fund, we are hoping to change that. MCUās Community Relief Fund (formerly titled the Emergency Relief Fund) is designed to act as a stopgap to support students in situations that could end their pursuit of midwifery education. The Community Relief Fund has been used for natural disasters, personal disasters and situations that could have ended a studentās journey as a midwife. The ā44 for 44ā campaign is designed to create a village of support for our students facing unforeseen economic hardships. These challenges threaten their ability to continue and complete their distance-education coursework or clinical placement. To address these needs, we are seeking contributions in increments of 44 ā be it $4.44, $44.44, or $444 ā from compassionate individuals like you. Be a part of the village that ensures every student midwife is able to complete their journey towards midwifery.

I know I am smiling but with great sadness I finished my family practice rotation today š¢ I had a blast in this rotation! If youāre in my class or talk to me regularly you know how much I went on about this placement and how much I enjoyed it. The reason why I enjoyed it was because I was able to really get to think outside of the box and make management plans that were best for my patients. I had a terrific preceptor as well, that was super supportive! I am going to miss family medicine and all the differential diagnosis it taught me. Next up NICU!! š¶š©āš¼š¼ Also today I finally but my choices in for senior year!!

This photo was reposted from our fellow midwifeās account @bedheadbirth. As youāll read in her caption below, she was purchasing an NRP textbook and these were the options she was given when asked about her profession. āMidwifeā is not a choice, but dentist, educator, student, office administrator, even āother non-medical professionalā are all options. But not midwife. Not an entire group of thousands of professionals who possess and frequently use the life-saving skills taught by NRP. What does this say about how medical professions and medical-adjacent professions see midwives? In this example, it seems to say that they donāt see them at all. Reposted ā¢ @bedheadbirth āItās the death by 1000 cuts for me. Time and time again #midwives are completely denied a seat at the table at critical points. For example, hereās me trying to buy a #neonatalresuscitation textbook. NRP is mandatory knowledge for us, yet #midwife is not a drop down option. Sure, midwifery is ānot the practice of medicineā but the absence of this job title, which is the sole care provider for neonates taking their first breaths around the globe, is pretty much reflective of the American attitude toward midwives as a whole. Likewise, when Maryland completely redesigned their birth certificate system this year, and forced us to use it, they had a chance to give us LDEMs our hard-earned licensed and legal seat. Instead, we are relegated to āother midwife.ā Do better yāall!!!!ā #nrp #seatatthetable #midwife #midwifery #midwifelife #midwiferycare #midwiferystudent #midwiferymodelofcare #studentmidwife #midwifeproblems #midwives #midwivesmakeadifference #midwivesrock #midwivessavelives #miswivesmatter #midwiferywisdom #midwiferywisdomcollective

And we are back! We are started 3rd year with a bang (a week long intensive). We technically started back in July with precourse readings and exams. 3rd year is a fun year because we do many different interprofessional rotations. My schedule for the next 3 months is Labour and Delivery and I will be nurse, then Iāll be doing a OB and following a doctor, and then my last placement for the semester will be at a midwifery practice. Iām excited to learn from all these different professions. The only down fall is that Iāll have a lot of different hospital modules to do š Iāll be posting a lot more with my learning journey this year!!! #midwife #midwifeoftiktok #midwifelife #nurses #midwifehumor #midwifetok #midwifetiktok #midwifeproblems #midwifery #midwiferystudent #midwiferyschool #healthcareworker #medicalhumor #medicaltiktok #hospitallife #hospitaltiktoks #labouranddelivery #birth #pregnancy #postpartum #labour #ob #obgyn #peds #toronto #ontario #canada #birthtok #birthcentre

You can focus on supporting and comforting each other, while the skilled birth photographer captures all the raw emotions, joy, and love that fill your birth space. A personal storyteller who ensures that you can relive those extraordinary moments for years to come. Plus, it takes away the pressure of trying to remember every detail amidst the whirlwind of emotions. With birth photography, you can truly cherish and embrace the journey of bringing new life into the world.ā£ .ā£ .ā£ .ā£ .ā£ .ā£ #babygirl #birthmatters #birthphotography #birthwithoutfear #doulalife #empoweredbirth #hypnobirthing #midwife #midwifeassistant #midwifeblanket #midwifebrasileira #midwifecrisis #midwifeday #midwifegift #midwifeled #midwifeproblems #midwifery #midwifery_notes #midwiferycare #midwifes #midwifestory #midwives #momlife #motherhood #nursing #obgyn #postpartum #studentmidwife #thirdtrimester #waterbirth

A midwifery side step š£ (not stepping awayā¦just yet!) Over the past few months Iāve come to realise that the part of my job that was causing me the most anxiety and burnout was the delivery/ward based shift life: The missed breaks, The leaving late, The anxiety of not knowing where Iāll be working every shift, The uncertainty that activity can change in mere seconds, Not knowing whoās about to walk through the door, So whatās the new plan? Along with my senior management team we have made the decision I am now going to be working a shift a week on the maternity telephone helpline and a shift in community doing a clinic day. Yes I donāt know whoās going to call the helpline or whoās going to come to my clinic but there will definitely be more certainty and predictability to my shifts. And no nightshifts! Also being away from the maternity wards themselves for a while will help massively I think. I hope š¤š¼ . . . . #midwifelife #midwifery #themidwifept #themidwifepersonaltrainer #midwife #modernmidwife #shiftlife #midwifeburnout #burntoutmidwife #midwiferyburnout #maternityburnout #maternitycrisis #midwifecrisis #midwifeproblems #newnormal #sidestepnotabackstep
š« A message for third year student midwives š« Iāve come across a lot of you now either at work or online who are currently in the same position I was in last year. Worried, nervous and anxious about still needing a lot of deliveries. So I wanted to put this out there for you all. I finished my last official intrapartum placement in 3rd year & went into consolidation at the end of the course still needing 25 deliveries. My cohort was hugely affected by covid & in 2020 I was pulled from my first ever intrapartum placement for lockdown. So I was behind on deliveries for the 3 years. But the main point of this post is to show you that I, like many others, needed what seemed like a ridiculous amount of deliveries by the end of the degree, but still got them! And you all will too. Needing 40 deliveries to qualify, it can be easy to slip in to the rut of honing in on the delivery side of things & being disappointed if the baby is delivered by other means, e.g forceps. Just remember that if this happens, youāve cared for a women in labour which can involve all sorts which you wouldāve learned from, and thatās much more beneficial for when you qualify. The experience of labour cares for different women with different needs is invaluable. Delivering the baby is the easy bit. When you qualify & youāre in the room alone with a high risk labouring woman at the start of her induction for example, youāll be grateful for the experience of caring for all sorts of women in labour, whether you actually caught the baby or not. So donāt let the stress of the amount of deliveries eat you up. I know itās easier said than done, but remember that youāve got your consolidation periods at the end to get the deliveries & youāll be supported to get them, not only because your colleagues will want to help you but also because the new band 5s & 1st year students will be starting, so itās in their best interest to help get you those deliveries! I hope this makes some of you feel a bit better about the situation. Youāre so close to the finish line now! I bet you all feel like time has flown! Can you believe youāre going to be full on, actual midwives soon?! #studentmidwifeproblems

Midwives provide essential care to pregnant women, ensuring their health and that of their babies. They offer personalized support during childbirth, monitoring the mother and baby's well-being, and responding to any potential complications. In addition to their clinical role, midwives provide emotional and psychological support, empowering new mothers and offering guidance on topics such as nutrition and parenting. Their expertise and experience play a crucial role in helping women to achieve a positive childbirth experience and a healthy start to motherhood. #midwife #midwifery #midwifelife #midwiferystudent #midwiferycare #midwifediary #midwiferysupport #midwiferymodelofcare #midwiferynotes #Midwiferydiary #midwifeproblems #midwifepreneur #midwifeofcolor #midwifeinthemaking #midwifeinthecity #midwifecrisis #midwifespeaks @weightloss.gr8 @nurses.247
ā£If you havenāt already guessed it, Iām trying to start a private midwifery service for the Widebay region. After 10 years as a midwife, and now starting my own little family I want to share the love/knowledge. Itās a slow moving ball to get the process right, the endorsement, the admin for provider and prescriber numbers, insurances, the setting up supplies and the credentialing process with the hospital. Still a few months out, the idea is to provide antenatal care and postnatal care to augment the public system and potentially labour and birth care.

Thereās a lot to be said about the pay (or lack of) that midwives, nurses, doctors, paramedics (and their trainee counterparts!) working in the NHS receive. With burnout at an all time high, the cost of living spiralling upwards and now workers being villainized for finally taking a stand against years of lower than inflation pay rises, is it no wonder the NHS (in the words of the RCN) is āhaemorrhagingā staff? Recently Iāve encountered a few midwives leaving for less stressful yet similarly paid roles. And itās all got me thinking.. With totaljobs.com listing the average salary of a UK delivery driver at Ā£32,500 is it okay that someone responsible for the safe delivery of parcels is paid a higher wage than someone responsible for the safe delivery of new life?* Surely there is something seriously wrong when society quietly accepts this? I hear the critics saying, āThereās no more money.ā But this cannot be true. I echo the words of @politicsjoe How the Government chooses to spend this countryās money is an ethical decision. They have chosen this route. A wage needs to reflect the level of responsibility, the level of qualification and the level of skill an individual must possess. Of course Iām not saying that delivery drivers are overpaid or unskilled. What Iām (and many others) are saying is that clearly the salaries of NHS midwives, nurses, doctors and paramedics donāt reflect what is actually involved. When the salary of a delivery driver exceeds that of a midwife it follows that what society is saying is that there is more value in delivering parcels - commercial goods, than in caring for women and babies. What it is saying is that people are not worth as much as parcels. And I donāt think thatās okay, do you? *Please forgive the play on words used when illustrating this point. Whilst the NMC still uses the term ādeliveryā in relation to the birth of a baby, I appreciate babies are not parcels (thatās my point) and they are not ādeliveredā but rather birthed. #changeisneedednow #strikes #fairpay #equality #nhs

If you have had prenatal care before there are some things that are similar to care with a doctor, and some things that are hallmarks of midwifery care. . . . #midwife #midwifery #midwifelife #midwiferystudent #midwiferycare #midwifediary #midwiferysupport #midwiferymodelofcare #midwifeproblems #midwifespeaks #midwiferynotes #Midwiferydiary #midwifepreneur #midwifeofcolor #midwifeinthemaking #midwifeinthecity #midwifecrisis #naturalbirth #naturalbirthcenter #naturalbirthcontrol #naturalbirthing #holistic #holistichealth #holistichealing #holisticliving #holisticlifestyle #holisticwellness #holisticlife #holisticmedicine
