Have you ever wondered how a doula helps you prepare for your birth? Typically we meet with you for two prenatal appointments. In these appointments we:
• get to know you and your partner
• get acquainted with your home space (so we can serve you in labor without asking a million questions about where you keep stuff)
• discuss your wishes for your birth
• educate about topics you need more information on
• teach positions and stretches for pregnancy to help baby take an optimal birth position
• practice positions and comfort techniques for labor and birth that are unique to your space and body
• discuss and reform fears
• build a birth plan and practice discussing with your provider
• prepare for postpartum (this is so important)
• AND SO MUCH MORE!
🌱
These appointments are flexible and meant to uniquely support YOU and what YOU need from this time! Want to make pad-sickles while we talk about your birth plan? You got it. Need to spend extra time practicing side-lying release because you have been feeling exhausted and disconnected? We got you. Want your partner to learn affirmations to say to you in labor? Let’s do it! Worried about how past trauma might come up in labor? Let’s talk and make a plan. These appointments are for you!

Doulas + partners = 🤝
We get some iteration of this question all the time! Is a doula needed if a partner will be present? We have a couple answers to this:
• You love your partner in a way that will keep all the awesome oxytocin flowing! When you are moving through labor, partners keep the hormones and safe place feeling going, while doulas have your back (or hips!) We’re taking care of both of you so you can stay in your love bubble 🫶
• We want to set your partner up for success and help them support you the best way they can! This means prenatal education, swapping off physical support during the birth, giving partners a chance to eat and drink and rest to keep their energy up, being the barometer of normal for partners, quietly pointing out the ways they can show up for you, etc.

Doulas don’t replace partners and partners don’t replace doulas! We complement one another’s support.

A little look at what our placenta encapsulation package includes!*
🌳 encapsulated placenta: these are where the bulk of your amazing placenta goes, and you take them orally just like any other supplement! Some proposed benefits are: supporting lactation, boosting energy levels, and warding off postpartum depressive/anxiety symptoms
🌿 placenta tincture: this is a liquid extract made from your placenta that can be used for long-term support. Some people like to use it right after their placenta capsules run out, or they’ll save it for when they have their return of menstruation or when they are ready to wean from breastfeeding/pumping. It is a helpful ally during any big hormonal shifts!
🌱 placenta salve: this is a soothing balm you can use on yours or your baby’s skin for any irritations!

Check out our website or send us a DM with questions or to book your placenta services!

*each encapsulation specialist brings their own style to placenta services, including packaging. Yours may vary slightly in their presentation from what is pictured here.
