If you’re due in April, May, or June, you might be realizing that your to-do list is growing faster than your bump. 🤰✨

Between the nursery mood boards and the sudden urge to organize your spice rack, the “big stuff” can feel a little overwhelming. Let’s turn that mountain of tasks into a manageable (and actually fun) game plan.

The Ultimate “Almost-There” To-Do List:
* [ ] Build a dream nursery (the aesthetic is vital, obviously).
* [ ] Interview & Hire your 312Doulas Birth Team.
* [ ] Secure your Postpartum Doula (future you says thank you for the sleep).
* [ ] Get schooled with Childbirth Education:
* Evidence Based Birth® for the facts.
* GentleBirth® hypnosis for the mindset.
* Spinning Babies® & Body Ready Method® for the physical prep.
* [ ] Attend workshops: Plan a great VBAC, Natural Breastfeeding, Advanced Comfort Measures
* [ ] Master Infant Care & CPR (the ultimate confidence booster).

Why 312Doulas? The Data Speaks for Itself. 📊

We aren’t just a “nice to have”—we are your birth-outcome secret weapon. According to the latest Cochrane review, having continuous labor support (like a doula!) can lead to:

* 39% Decrease in the risk of Cesarean sections.
* 15% Increase in the likelihood of a spontaneous vaginal birth.
* 31% Decrease in the use of synthetic oxytocin (Pitocin).
* Shorter labors by an average of 41 minutes.

Beyond the numbers, hiring a doula is about evidence-based advocacy and unwavering support. When you hire 312Doulas, you aren’t just checking a box—you’re investing in a positive, empowered entry into parenthood.

❤️ Victoria and Heather started 312Doulas 8 years ago after having been colleagues and friends for years before that! What an incredible journey we've had with having now supported more than 1000 families during their births, teaching countless of classes & workshops helping our clients have the best strategies for birth thru postpartum. It has been an honor and a privilege to help in our way!

Don’t talk about how long we’ve been in labor. Don’t tell us how much further to go, or offer a guess. Don’t ask how we’re doing. We’ll be sure to tell you! Those questions bring us into our thinking brain / frontal lobe. That’s not where oxytocin and instinct thrive. Everyone means well, but telling us / it will be a while / we don’t think your cervix has changed / the epidural is always here for you /

Small little statements that rent space in our brain. Invite doubt.

Instead, Whisper these sweet nothings during labor. Affirmations, swearing, cheering are all keys to coping.

No need to make it any harder.

What words lifted you up in birth?
