Magnolia Birth Doula Services

Magnolia Birth Doula Services Team of birth doulas serving families in Lubbock, Tx and surrounding areas. Emily Betancur is a wife, mom, and educated childbirth doula in Lubbock, Texas.

Hospital, birth center, home, epidural, unmedicated, Cesarean - we’ve got you, momma!Pregnancy, labor, birth, postpartum. She has 3 boys of her own, a bonus son who lives with her full time, a bonus daughter who lives in Midland, and she is currently pregnant with her final addition due in February 2023 (that will make 5 in her home, and 6 total!). She became a childbirth doula after she hired a doula for her third hospital birth. Her experience was the most beautiful delivery, and she felt like she missed out during her first two births. Now, she wants to help other mommas feel as loved and supported as she did, during one of the most unforgettable experiences of their lives.

Your contraction timer can’t tell you much — but your doula can 💕

Timing is helpful, but it’s only one piece of the puzzle.

When we’re supporting a mom in labor, we’re watching for so much more than just minutes and seconds on a screen.

Here’s what we’re paying attention to 👇
💨 The sounds you’re making — from talking through contractions to moaning or humming through them
🧐The clear changes and shifts of intensity level - how you’re responding to the contractions and pain (you can only see this when you’re with a mom continuously from the start)
👣 How your body moves — rising on your toes or sinking closer to the floor
🤍 The shift from rocking back and forth to swaying side to side
💜 The purple line appearing as baby descends
🌀 The Rhombus of Michaelis forming in the lower back
🕒 The pattern and consistency of contractions
💕 And of course, your instincts and voice. If you say your baby is coming right now, we listen - and we make sure everyone listens too!! You’re probably right 💪🏼

Your doula puts all of these clues together — plus your medical history, values, and birth preferences — to help you determine when it’s truly time to go in.

So you arrive calm, confident, and ready.

✨ Want that kind of support for your birth?
