🌿 Why Midwifery Care Matters 💛

At Attuned Midwifery Services, we believe that midwifery care is not just about delivering babies—it's about providing personalized, compassionate care that supports families throughout their entire pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. Here’s why midwifery care matters and how it can make a meaningful difference in your birth experience:

1. Holistic Care for the Whole Family
Midwifery care is rooted in holistic principles, which means we view each person as a whole, not just a set of medical symptoms. We consider your physical, emotional, mental, and even spiritual well-being throughout the entire process. Our approach supports not only the birthing person but also the entire family—including your partner and children.

2. Continuity of Care
With midwifery care, you can expect continuity and consistency. From the moment you find out you’re pregnant to well after your baby is born, you will receive care from the same midwife or team of midwives. This consistent relationship fosters trust and helps create a supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and respected.

3. Personalized Birth Plans
Every pregnancy and birth experience is unique. Midwives work closely with families to create personalized birth plans that align with your values and preferences. Whether you want a home birth, water birth, or natural pain management, midwives will provide the support, guidance, and resources you need to make informed choices and create the birth experience you desire.

Why It Matters to You
At Attuned Midwifery Services, we believe that midwifery care matters because it provides a safe, personalized, and supportive approach to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. Our mission is to empower families, honor birth choices, and provide the highest level of care every step of the way.

💓 Fetoscope vs. Doppler: How We Listen to Baby’s Heartbeat 💓
At Attuned Midwifery Services, we have two beautiful ways to check in on your baby’s heartbeat — and we honor your preferences every step of the way.

🎧 Fetoscope
A fetoscope is a special type of stethoscope designed to listen to baby’s heartbeat — naturally and without electronics.
🌿 Completely non-electronic and radiation-free
🌿 Often preferred by those wanting minimal intervention
🌿 Typically used after ~20 weeks when baby’s heartbeat is easier to hear

✨ It can be a beautiful, quiet moment to connect with baby — and yes, you can hear it too!

📻 Doppler
A handheld Doppler uses sound waves to detect and amplify your baby’s heartbeat.
⚡ Gives quick results and works earlier in pregnancy (~10–12 weeks)
⚡ Helpful during labor for quicker access between contractions
⚡ A little louder and more clinical, but reassuring when used appropriately

We offer both options and help you choose what feels best for you and your baby. Whether you're all about that swooshing Doppler sound or love the natural rhythm of the fetoscope, we’ve got you covered.

🤱 Tuesday Tip #24: Breastfeeding Pain Is NOT Normal

While some discomfort is common in early days, pain is a signal that something needs attention.

✨ Midwife Support:
We offer hands-on help with latch, positioning, and common challenges like tongue tie or oversupply.

Early intervention prevents long-term issues and helps make breastfeeding a positive experience for you and baby.

Remember: Comfort is key!

I love when things work out (thanks to my colleagues being willing to step in if needed). Two babies were getting ready to come on the same day. But they took their turns and came 12 hours apart. This midwife even got to sleep for 4 hours between them. Very respectful, very polite. (this is an unfiltered photo of what I look like after a post-birth nap)

🌿 Birth Doesn’t Have to Be Scary
with Annie K***z, CPM | Attuned Midwifery Services

Birth is often portrayed as something to fear, but we believe it’s something to celebrate and embrace.

At Attuned Midwifery Services, we’re here to help you experience birth in a calm, supportive, and empowering environment.
When you choose home birth, you choose a space where you feel safe, respected, and in control—away from the hustle of hospital corridors, and surrounded by your loved ones and a birth team who honors your choices.

✨ Home birth can offer:
💛 Personalized care
💛 Privacy and comfort
💛 More freedom in your labor
💛 A soothing, peaceful environment

We help you take the fear out of birth and replace it with trust in your body’s ability, the power of your instincts, and the support of a skilled midwife who’s here to guide you.

There are moments in life when you can feel a chapter beginning to close.

After 10 years, I am beginning the process of closing Attuned Midwifery Services.

This practice has held so much—first breaths, powerful labors, quiet postpartum moments, and deep relationships with families. It has been one of the greatest privileges of my life to do this work in the El Paso community.

I’ve recently accepted a position with Vida Midwifery in Las Cruces, where I’ll be part of a group practice and an upcoming birth center opening in 2026.

I will continue caring for my current clients through the end of 2026, but will not be accepting new clients due July 2026 or later.

This transition holds both grief and excitement. Letting go of something so meaningful is never simple—but stepping into something aligned brings a sense of rightness, too.

I look forward to celebrating this journey with you all soon.

🌬️ Tuesday Tip #23: Pelvic Floor Awareness

Your pelvic floor works hard during pregnancy and birth — and gentle care afterward helps healing.

✨ Midwife Advice:
Early postpartum focus is on breathing and gentle activation (think deep belly breaths and pelvic tilts).

When you’re ready, we can refer you to pelvic floor physical therapists who specialize in postpartum recovery.

Your pelvic floor health impacts everything from bladder control to sexual wellbeing — don’t neglect this essential care!

👶✨ What does an initial newborn assessment look like with Attuned Midwifery Services?

Right after birth, our focus is on keeping baby skin-to-skin with their parents, warm, and bonding. 💞 The first exam is done gently, at home, and with parents right by baby’s side.

Here’s what it includes:
🌿 Checking baby’s breathing, heart rate, temperature, and overall well-being
📏 Measuring weight, length, and head circumference
🧡 Assessing reflexes, tone, and feeding cues
🌸 Delayed cord clamping and a thorough look at baby’s transition earthside
🏡 All done calmly, respectfully, and without unnecessary separation

Our priority is making sure both baby and family feel safe, supported, and deeply cared for in those sacred first hours.
