I love watching and reading stories of old 'grandmidwives'. Because these wwoman were brown much of their history and service is lost to us. Typically, at that time a white doctor only deleivered white babies. It was necessary to have these grandmidwives to help brown families who were not given equal medical care. Grandmidwives had always been around. They had what they had and they did what they could. Often times, they had this special wisodm and instinct that can and has gotten lost with medicalized training.
What i like about Ms. Mary is she is simple and wise. I find how she dealt with the woman gentle and informative. She was teaching them to be aware and take care of themselves. I find the information useful today. This would be especially useful for young mothers with the increase of teen pregnancy. It is so important for woman to feel empowered and education is power. That is exactly what Ms. Mary did. She was a pioneer for her time.
 
I saw this blog on cervixes. I was in love. They are so beautiful, weird right? Then i had clarity. If i want to do gynecological work without medical school which is impossible with 4 small kids, I can become a CNM. Certified Nurse Midwife who is a nurse first then, earns a Master's in Midwifery. I can then offer gynecological care and prenatal/postpartum care. Now i have decide and apply for nursing school and committ to two years part time. I still plan on homeschooling. I have to figure out how to juggle while my hubsnad works on the road.

    Certified Nurse Midwife now or wait until my kids are older?
