Mind Body Baby Doula

What did someone say to you during your labor and birth that made you feel safe?

Midwives are the keepers of physiological birth.

As a doula, I WANT the midwives to be well rested and not burn out. That’s my job to hold the space during the long hours, the hip squeezes, the help with movement.

Doulas are needed in all birth settings!

This is how we wait for a baby at a home birth. Off in a side room with my assistant, charting and scrolling and generally having a wonderful time :) Mom is just a room away doing the work of labor. We can hear her breathing and sometimes a moan slips in. We look in on her every 20-30 minutes to listen to the baby and then retreat. If she asks us to stay by her side, we do, but most moms don't want to be watched until closer to the end. When birth comes near, we quietly enter the birthing space to witness the miracle

This article is bringing EFM to the forefront, but we already knew the truth about continuous monitoring and who it really protects.

Decades of research have shown that round-the-clock fetal monitoring does not reliably predict fetal distress, and experts say it leads to many unnecessary surgeries. But it’s still used in nearly every birth in the U.S. because of business and legal concerns, a New York Times investigation found. https://nyti.ms/3WF7yLx

Being your doula is a joy ❤️ . .
Here is what Grace said about her birth experience:

“What I will say is that it was a fear free environment thanks to for her incredible experience and help throughout pregnancy, labor, and delivery. She really helped Taylor and I feel confident in the choices we made. Julian’s birth was an incredible experience. I’m happy to say that my two main goals were met: a healthy baby and a healthy me 💕” . .
Grace rocked her birth and it was a joy to hold space for her and the little frog prince himself 💚 . .
