My Mom šŸ¤āœļø

This morning, my world changed forever.

My precious mother passed away, and there are no words that truly capture the weight of that sentence.

For the past several months, my family and I have walked through illness, uncertainty, countless prayers, long nights, hospital rooms, and moments when all we could do was hold on to faith. I am grateful beyond words for every person who prayed for my mother, checked on us, brought food, offered encouragement, or simply reminded us that we were not walking this road alone.

As a healthcare provider, I have spent my career caring for others and helping families through some of their most vulnerable moments. But being on the other side of that experience—being the daughter sitting beside her mother—is something entirely different. There were moments when I had answers, and moments when I had none. There were things medicine could do, and things only God could do.

Today, I am choosing to believe that God has answered the prayer I prayed so many times: that my mother would no longer suffer.

My heart is broken, but I am thankful. Thankful for her life. Thankful for her love. Thankful for the lessons she taught me. Thankful for every laugh, every conversation, every memory, and every ordinary moment that I now realize was anything but ordinary.

To my patients and my professional community: thank you for your patience, grace, prayers, and understanding during these past difficult weeks. I may not have always been able to show up the way I normally do, but I have been doing my best to navigate being a daughter while continuing to be the provider my patients depend on.

Today, I am simply her daughter.

And I am going to miss my mama more than words can ever say.

Until we meet again, Mama.
I love you. šŸ¤

šŸ’› Antenatal Hand Expression of Colostrum

Have you heard of antenatal hand expression?

Antenatal hand expression involves collecting small amounts of colostrum during pregnancy, usually beginning around 36-37 weeks gestation, after discussing it with your healthcare provider.

🌟 What is colostrum? Colostrum is your baby's first milk. It is rich in antibodies, nutrients, and immune-protective factors that help support your newborn during the first days of life.

Benefits of Antenatal Colostrum Collection

🤱 May provide stored colostrum if baby needs supplementation after birth

🤱 Can be especially helpful for parents with: • Diabetes during pregnancy • Planned cesarean births • Multiple gestation pregnancies • Certain maternal or infant health conditions

🤱 Helps parents become familiar with hand expression before baby arrives

🤱 May increase confidence with breastfeeding in the early postpartum period

Important Reminder

Antenatal hand expression is not appropriate for everyone.

Certain pregnancy conditions may increase the risk of preterm labor or make antenatal expression unsafe. Always discuss with your healthcare provider or IBCLC before starting.

Last night, I laid awake with my eyes closed, having some serious conversations with God. And by ā€œconversations,ā€ I mean I gave Him a fifty-eleven-hour prayer that probably covered every topic known to mankind. šŸ˜‚

Honestly, if I were on the receiving end of my prayer, I probably would’ve said, ā€œMa’am… respectfully… hush your mouth and GO TO BED.ā€ šŸ˜‚

But God isn’t like me.

He doesn’t get tired of hearing us. He doesn’t grow weary while we pour out our hearts. He doesn’t check the clock, sigh, or wonder when we’re finally going to wrap it up.

He listens.

Psalm 55:22 says, ā€œCast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you.ā€

And 1 Peter 5:7 reminds us to ā€œCast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.ā€

So I talked. And talked. And probably talked some more.

And today… some of those prayers were answered. šŸ™šŸ¼

Today was a MUCH better day. A day with a little more peace, a little more hope, a few answered prayers… and ICE CREAM. šŸ¦

And honestly, I feel like God knew I needed that last part too. šŸ˜‚

Sometimes the answer doesn’t come exactly when or how we want it. Sometimes it comes quietly, one little blessing at a time. But today, I was reminded that God is still listening, still working, and still right there—even in the middle of the nights when all I can do is close my eyes and talk to Him.

ā€œThe Lord is near to the brokenhearted.ā€ — Psalm 34:18

Tonight, I’m going to try something different.

Less fifty-eleven hours of talking.

More trusting.

And maybe… a little sleep. ā¤ļø šŸ§Žā€ā™€ļøā€āž”ļøšŸ›Œ

Today was a good day. And for that, I’m incredibly grateful.

I believe in being transparent with my patients, and I wanted to share a personal update with you.

As many of you know, my mother has been ill for the past few months. Over the last several weeks, her health has deteriorated quickly, and she is currently in the ICU. This has been an incredibly difficult and emotional time for my family, and I am doing my best to balance being there for my mom and continuing to be there for my patients.

I plan to be in clinic and caring for my patients as much as possible during this time. However, I also ask for your understanding if appointments need to be rescheduled or if my availability is occasionally limited. I sincerely apologize to anyone who has experienced an unexpected change or inconvenience with their appointment.

One of the greatest blessings during this difficult season has been the kindness and understanding of my patients. I am incredibly grateful to each of you who has been patient, supportive, and understanding—and especially to those of you who have remembered my mom and my family in your prayers.

As a healthcare provider, I spend so much of my time caring for others. Right now, my family needs a little care and grace, too.

Thank you for allowing me the space to be both your provider and a daughter walking through a very difficult chapter with her mom. Your compassion means more to me than you know. ā¤ļøšŸ™

With gratitude,
Tiffany, CNM

Excuse me while I go cry a little.

My baby boy graduated from college today and this momma heart is so full of pride and joy.

To my wonderful patients,

I want to sincerely apologize to those whose appointments had to be rescheduled today. Canceling clinic is never a decision I take lightly. Caring for my patients is more than my profession—it’s a calling and a privilege that I hold close to my heart.

Today, however, my family needed me.

Family has always been at the center of everything I do. The compassion, presence, and care that I strive to provide to each of you are the same values I believe are so important to give to the people we love most. While it was difficult to step away from the office, I know it was where I needed to be.

I am incredibly grateful for the kindness, understanding, grace, and support so many of you have shown me during this time. Your patience means more than you know, and I never take your trust in me for granted.

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to care for my loved ones so that I can return and continue caring for yours. I look forward to seeing each of you soon.

With gratitude,
Tiffany Williams, CNM

I truly have the BEST patients… ever. ā¤ļø

If you know me, you know life has been throwing some major curveballs lately. I’m getting through these days with plenty of caffeine, a whole lot of Jesus, and the incredible kindness of the people God has placed in my life.

From meals for my family, to coffee showing up on the days I need it most, to the countless prayers, hugs, encouraging words, tequila, and simple acts of kindness—my patients, coworkers, colleagues, friends, and family have carried me in ways you’ll never fully know.

I don’t take a single bit of it for granted. Your generosity has been a reminder that even in the hardest seasons, we are never meant to walk alone.

Thank you for loving my family so well and for reminding me every day why I love what I do. My heart is incredibly full, and I am beyond grateful for each of you.

God has blessed me with the most amazing people, and I will never stop thanking Him for that. ā¤ļø
