It's been a long time since I posted anything, and much has happened since then. Isn't that always the case? My practice is now comfortably started up, although now and again I feel growing pains. I did about 60 births in 2006, although some of those were births of midwives that I was covering call for.
I thoroughly enjoy what I'm doing, although when I get a labor call at 3 a.m. I wonder just what I was so anxious to be a midwife for!

I've had a bit of a lull my practice. Only one client due per month in January, February, and March. In April I have 5 clients due, and from there on I have 3-5 due per month. I've decided that I'd like to do an average of 7 a month. That's do-able to me. I will be able to give the clients the attention that they're paying me to give them, without toooo many missed appointments due to being with a laboring mommy. And I'll be able to have a semblance of a life outside midwifery. That's important to me.
