Hands - The Hands of a Midwife

Posted Sep 05 2010 5:26pm
Our hands can be used to harm, to heal, to love, to punish, to communicate, to nurture, or to work. As a doula, my hands are skilled in relief and respite. As an educator, my hands are used to communicate and to demonstrate. As a midwife, my hands will be used to catch and console.

Hands are powerful.

This is the third post in a series about hands. Mothers, doulas, midwives, educators, and nurses hands - they all speak for themselves - stories of regret, forgiveness, empowerment, and love.

For this particular post, I am going to refer you to a prior post. Truly, a midwife's greatest tool is her hands .
