I meant to say this ages ago. But due to personal circumstances, I am unable to host my moonstone mingle this year. I was really looking forward to it, and wanted it to be yearly. But, it is what it is. I hope to have it in the spring next year ❤️

Welcome baby!! Labor went quick and strong until a long stall and OP at 9cm. But that’s ok! We turned baby and kept things moving and when it was time, it was time! It was a hard working two hours of pushing. Many times they wanted to give up, but they never did! Birth is strong. Birth is hard. Birth is full of transformation. Tears and laughter and all the things between. So proud!

Pregnancy isn’t always a basket of spring sunshine and a warm breeze. It changes the body and mind. iIt’s a liminal space between not being a parent and being a parent. Or being a parent to a newborn again. It’s a huge dynamic shift and it can be utterly exhausting. Not to mention nausea, ligament pain, back pain, poor sleep, dietary changes, finding proper care and support, planning for postpartum and on and on it goes! It’s important to slow down, take some tine, bring joy to your life in small ways.

A little reintroduction!
I’m Ash, a doula. What’s up! I like stuff. I like supporting people, chatting, having coffee. I care, I’m empathetic, I have anxiety and grief. I buy books, read books, buy journals, write. I hyper-fixate and think it’s a great time. Oh the kettle boiled! Ta ta!

Not the usual type of content but if you know me you know I hyperfixate and love planner things. Here is my hobonichi wishlist! Using birthday money from four years ago to get some things this year. ❤️✨

Sometimes things move too swiftly to understand. It starts with a sensation, suddenly the water breaks and then you’re screaming your way to the hospital. Sometimes things move too quickly and the intensity is hard to adjust to. But, we all get there, we set the atmosphere right, we remain calm and a beautifull brith is had. I’m so proud of them, they kicked major ass. Many joyful tears dampened the baby’s blanket along with thick vernix and baby p*e. Oh what a ride.

A birthday shared with my mom! ❤️

Pre e can really challenge and complicate things. From early indications, to magnesium, to on and on it goes. It makes the sense of control feel fleeting, the positive experience crumble as more and more interventions pile on. But, we do the best we can. We remain supportive, we give info, demand informed consent, understand choices, risks, benefits. Every choice that’s made is one surrounded by understanding, no judgement, and support.

All coffee, no words.
