Affirmations and thoughts for healthy 
pregnancy and normal birthing

   
 

Susan Fekety is a Certified Nurse Midwife.  She has been a practicing nurse-midwife for almost 20 years, attending some 1500 

births during that time.  Key to her practice is her belief that thoughts create reality.  Thus, Susan works with women to create affirmations (like those in The Pocket Midwife) to help throughout the pregnancy and birthing process.  

Susan has an undergraduate degree in political science from Yale where she also earned her Master's degree in Nursing and Nurse-Midwifery. 

“Every pregnant woman should have one — even if there's a real midwife in her life! ...marvelous materials for promoting conscious creation of a positive birth experience.”
Christiane Northrup, MD, Obstetrician/Gynecologist

“For uplifting and positive affirmations during pregnancy, The Pocket Midwife is the ultimate partner!”
—Mary, nurse

“...Finally there is a smart, truthful, encouraging attempt to counteract all that negativism. If you are pregnant, know someone who is pregnant, or have ever been pregnant, The Pocket Midwife is for you. Now everyone can be cared for by a midwife!”
— Bethany, obstetrician

The Pocket Midwife is like a book of quotations from the intelligent pregnant woman's wise inner goddess...When every pregnant woman embraces as truth the beautifully self- empowering messages in (this book), childbirth in America will 
be revolutionized...”
—Shelley, nurse-midwife 
and performance artist

The Pocket Midwife is...

  • A must for expectant mothers

  • The perfect gift

  • A valuable wellness tool

  • A unique client gift for midwives, doulas, and childbirth educators

Stay grounded, open and brave with The Pocket Midwife, a book of affirmations and thoughts especially for expectant mothers. Written by Susan Fekety, Certified Nurse Midwife, this book draws on her 20 years as a nurse midwife.

Affirmations are gentle reminders that help you move past tough spots. Over the years, Susan has compiled the affirmations contained in this book — there are 70 in all — through her work helping to nurture and support women during their pregnancies. 

With The Pocket Midwife, Susan hopes to share with women outside of her daily practice a bit of the inspiration she shares with those she cares for face-to-face.
