About Me
My name is Kathy Petersen, and I have been married for 5 years. My husband and I have two children, currently ages 3 and 18 months, both born at home. I am a stay-at-home mom and a childbirth educator; my husband is a schoolteacher. We live in Ripley, MS, and are members of Ripley Primitive Baptist Church.

Hi Kathy, nice to meet you!
Kathy,
do you ever work with young pregnant women who might want to give their baby up for adoption? and would you be willing to do a direct placement instead of using an agency?

Kathy,
Thank you for taking a look at my “bedside resolve” blog. I appreciate your comments and have approved them and responded.
Hi Kathy, I was forced to have my baby at home because the doctors are so intent of invasive procedures. I actually like having babies at home over the hospital anyday though.
I needed someone to help me however I did not know any other options other than being abused by the doctors at the hospital. They would have made me a nervious wreck and led to a c-section.
It seems as if the women in Mississippi are getting mroe birthing options. It is about time this has happened.

Our daughter in law has chosen birthing at home….I wish I had had that option when my children were born, and had known what I know now.
Kathy, Could I get an e-mail from you. I would love to share a personal story regarding your blog on “Show Me God”.
Your sister in Christ,
