This is WHY there are 6 incredible midwives in our community who are not able to practice: "Six midwives, who had been working for years at Barrie Midwives, were informed back in December 2019 that their contracts would not be renewed past July, after expressing an interest in starting their own practice." This also means that women in our community have gone without the midwifery care they wanted, with the providers they wanted, during a pandemic when birth support in hospi...tal is now limited to 1 support person. Rather than a full compliment of practicing midwives in Barrie Innisfil 6 midwives with hospital privileges at RVH have been unable to do what they are professionally trained to do because they wanted to open their own practice. Here is the link to the post from Advocates For Pregnancy Care Choice in Barrie-Innisfil with a sample letter and email address for local MPPs and the Minister of Health. Please write an email and cc the group [email protected]: https://www.facebook.com/advocatesforchoicebarrie/posts/108049161074059 We need to be building one another up and not tearing one another down.

2020 has been...well, you know Nonetheless we hope you can count some moments of JOY and THANKFULNESS in the midst of a year that probably hasn’t gone as planned. What brought you JOY this year? What are you THANKFUL for? #mmc #mountainmommacollective #momsupport #momsupportingmoms #doulasupport #lactationsupport #thankful #thankgiving #thanksgiving2020 #fall #lifestylefamilyphotography #familyphotoshoot #fallphotoshoot

This is NOT acceptable. There are six incredible midwives who need our support (see below). If you are local to Barrie-Innisfil and wanted to access midwifery care in the last 6 months but were unable to do so, had to go to another community for midwifery care, or had to select another care provider please direct message Advocates For Pregnancy Care Choice in Barrie-Innisfil if you would be willing to share your story. Thank you!

We are the only species of mammal that doubts our ability to birth. It’s profitable to scare women about birth.
