A long due ‘Hows it going’ is overdue..

So much has happened in the last 5 years… much of which I’m still processing.

I started this journey 7 year ago. Which blessed me with my now best friend and colleague.

I’ve never been so grateful for the knowledge, friendships, and learning I’ve gained. Birth and beyond. Being a doula is more than pregnancy, birth, and babies. Through this chapter of life I made many connections that I still refer expectant families to, honestly too many to name.

Motherhood, my own birth trauma, cancer and life in general has made it difficult.
There will always be a place in my heart for the stories I’ve been apart of, but tonight, I say goodbye.

It’s been absolute honor.

For my final farewell, I had pleasure to be with a second time friend and family, one of the strongest mothers in my journey. Covid stole our time at birth but she showed me what she was made of and how much she did before. I believe this beautiful little girl takes a spot in the top 3 for size!
Baby W was 9lbs 6oz and had one of the largest placentas to date!

Recently, two OB/GYN physicians left the Woodward market, impacting women’s health services in northwest Oklahoma. INTEGRIS Health Woodward Hospital is actively working to recruit replacements. In the interim, two OB/GYN physicians have been contracted for 24-hour coverage for obstetrics, gynecological care, deliveries, and surgeries. There will be no gap in coverage for our expectant mothers. Both physicians have extensive experience and are fluent in Spanish.

Beginning today, new patients may call 580-256-2188 for prenatal and gynecological care. The clinic is open and will have regular hours Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. It is located at 1818 Kansas Ave.

“We are committed to providing this vital service for our patients in northwest Oklahoma and our region,” stated John Brown, interim chief hospital executive for INTEGRIS Health Woodward Hospital. “Recruiting physicians to rural America continues to be a challenge, but we are working every day to attract new physicians to our area,” he said.

New Narcotics-Free Pain Management Option!!!!

I am thrilled to share the news that a local hospital is offering Nitrous Oxide for use during your labor to assist with pain management and/or anxiety!!

Well done -⭐️ EDMOND HEALTH INTEGRIS HOSPITAL!🌟

According to my client, the Nitrous Oxide provided her relief. The hospital asked her to take her discomfort using a number scale of 0-10 instead of the coping scale. My client had rated her level as an 9 without the gas and confidentiality stated that her discomfort dropped to a 6 while using the gas.

I hope all of the hospitals in OK start to provide this option to birthing families.
