Be. Lioness!

Pregnancy and birth awaken something primal.
A power that has always been inside you — fierce, wild, unshakable.

In the intensity of labor, in the surrender of each surge, in the roar that rises from deep within… the lioness is born.

She is brave. She is fearless. She is you.

Birth isn’t just about bringing life into the world — it’s about discovering the warrior, the protector, the unyielding heart that lives inside every mother.

When you step into birth, you step into your own strength. And once you’ve met your lion, you’ll never forget her voice.

“FreeBirths”
For expecting moms and families.

Please read the entire post first before you comment. And check the comments. I have made amendments to this post. Some of the post that I got have made me rethink.
No negative Nancy’s please.

Howdy all! I’m in the Texoma/DFW/Southern Oklahoma area (I have a large radius - up to 3 hrs. I’m right in the middle of Texas and Oklahoma.)
I’m beginning to take more “freebirths” - a home birth with no practitioner. Yes, I know the dangers. I’ve been doing this for 6 and a half years!
Anyway, if you have a client in my area looking for a doula for a “freebirth”, send them my way!!!

I have a pool, and all the things!

There are stipulations.
- There are dangers with ftm’s. But I’m happy to chat with you and see how your pregnancy is continuing. Not trying to scare you. Not at all.

- I won’t do VBAC’s - this is a hard no. Idc if other doula agree or disagree. I have been a doula for MANY VBAC’s. And I have seen them go down hill fast and them end in emergency C. I’m not trying to scare anyone. I have also seen beautiful VBAC’s. But I still am not comfortable with it. Please try and understand my choice. Because it is just that. My choice. I don’t need a tongue lashing.

It can always be different circumstances for each client.
I know many freebirths moms are against seeing any providers. And that’s ok. There is always wiggle room, of course. I just want to keep safe momma and baby and myself as well.
Ik that sometimes high risk doesn’t really mean high risk. One woman I talked to from this post said she was “high risk” because she was 36. We all know that’s not “high risk”.
If you are a pregnant woman looking for a doula who will do a FreeBirth, please send me a message or comment.
And like I asked before, please no negative Nancys!

For real!!!! I have 4!!!! bags when I go into a birth. A huge camping backpack on my back, a cooler backpack on my front with energizing snacks an drinks. And a huge ass duffel bag with wheels that I drag. And a bag with dry snacks and a change of clothes and socks and shoes (amniotic fluid in your shoes is not cool. Soggy and yuck!!!!).

I’m a bereavement doula, such a horrible thing. The loss of a child is excruciating. And everyone else gos on, but you don’t.
My son died 4 yrs ago. I’m still stuck in 2021 forever. Part of me anyway.
