Midwife Ashley

I’m working on a trauma-informed educational guide about birth experiences that didn’t go as planned—including disappointment, grief, trauma, and loss.

I’m inviting women to share, anonymously and optionally, anything they wish about their experience. You may skip questions, stop at any time, or choose not to participate at all.
This includes experiences that others may have minimized or brushed aside—and also the big, heavy ones.

Your story does not need to be polished, resolved, or “important enough.”

If it still lives in your body or your heart, it matters.

If you feel called to share, you can do so here:
www.ashleylking.com/birth-experiences

And if not—please take care of yourself. This invitation will remain open.

Birth Experiences Sharing Form — Ashley King This form is intended to gather anonymous insights and stories related to difficult, disappointing, or traumatic birth experiences, including a wide range of outcomes. Your responses may be used anonymously in an educational resource focused on understanding, processing, and healing after unexpected

It’s always extra special when friends become clients and I get to be on their team. Whispering to baby, “Welcome to the world, thank you for coming.” ❤️

Peep the little heart on my nails from my Valentine’s Mani that stayed fresh in time for Miss Heartleigh Hope to make her appearance. 🥰
