Dana, thank you so much for choosing me to be a part of your birth. You did it girl! ❤️
We went through 9 hours of intense labor and through it all you remained calm and remembered that God is in control.
I feel blessed to be a part of something so beautiful; you are a warrior and you made beauty from the pain. I will forever remember and embrace this experience with the love I felt in the birth room.
D, thank you for allowing me to help support your family in a time so intimate. I enjoyed partnering with you to support your beautiful wife. You were an amazing support partner and I have no doubt you will continue to wholeheartedly love and support your family through the postpartum period.
Marley, my sweet Memorial Day baby, you are loved. Your family was waiting for you and you came into the world with your own voice in your own timing. I pray your life is full of God’s grace and love; I will never forget you or the joy we felt when you blessed us with presence.
To the three of you- Thank you for trusting me and inviting me into your hearts as a Sister in Christ.
With much love. ❤️

Knowledge is power. 💕

"See that tiny pink bead on my lanyard? That is the size of a newborn's tiny tummy. When baby is born, the birthing parent produces colostrum for baby, which is the perfect for baby. Colostrum contains just the amount of food baby needs and passes antibodies. It's ! In this photo, I have a standard 2 ounce bottle of formula that is given to new babies. So, if baby's belly is only the size of a marble, what happens when baby is fed 2 ounces? Well, baby will usually spit up all the extra, which then can be spinned into baby having reflux. When really, baby is just being over fed. This leads to interventions like formula changes, antacid medications, etc. It's important that we give families all the available information so they can make the best decisions for their families.

Hello Ladies, I am doing a discounted doula service for three lovely Mommas this summer!
Due to me only being one person I can only accept a couple of births per month, so it is first come first serve.
As you know I am a Momma and a Christian. I am blessed to offer Mommies this necessary care at a discounted rate.
Message me or comment below for me to reach out to you about this service.
God Bless and much love,

!

This is what home birth looks like,

Midwives sitting at the table chatting, sipping coffee and water.

Your best friend sitting on the floor playing with your toddler.

Your partner holding your hand while you work with the waves that rush over you to bring your baby into this universe.

Home birth isn’t how the movies depict birth. It isn’t an agonizing mother in hospital bed. It isn’t a woman who’s left to do the work all on her own. It isn’t unfamiliar doctors and nurses ushering in & out of your hospital room.

Birth is,
Powerful.
A rite of passage.
Transforming.
Empowering.
Normal.

Perinatal Support is so important. Make sure you have a good support system in place throughout the entirety of your pregnancy.
Depression does not just happen postpartum. It is imperative to have friends, family and Doulas around that support you.
This is a great read. If you are interested in a Doula in the Lake Norman please reach out to me. ❤️

You matter. 💓

The mental health of mothers matters so much. To the woman herself, to her baby, family and the world. Taking care of moms is caring for our society.

A resourced and supported mother has better outcomes for her baby, family and community. A woman who is struggling, under resourced, without access to care and alone is not the goal, but unfortunately all too common. We can do better.

Education, resources, perinatal care from the start and removing the stigma of mental health issues are what we need.

I always appreciated these Tupac lyrics, they apply here:
"And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we r**e our women, do we hate our women?...
Time to heal our women, be real to our women"

"Keep ya head up" AND get the help you deserve. 💜

P.S. most perinatal statistics are far worse for women of color
