December 26th is the pause.

After the anticipation.
After the planning.

This photo was taken in the quiet moments right after birth…when time slows, the room softens, and a family meets themselves in a new way.

As a birth doula, witnessing this is one of the greatest honors of my work.
Not just the birth, but the first breath, the first touch, the first “we did it.”

The day after Christmas reminds me of birth in so many ways.
The magic doesn’t end when the moment passes.
It lives on in what comes after…the integration, the rest, the remembering.

If you’re pregnant and imagining your own first family photo:
you deserve to be supported through the moment and beyond it.

✨ I’m welcoming 2026 birth clients.
If you feel called to calm, grounded, continuous support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the immediate postpartum period, my inbox is open.

And that’s a wrap.
My final birth of 2025 ✨
Another mama supported. Another baby earthside.
Forever grateful I get to witness strength like this.
That quiet walk out of the hospital after a birth-heart full, body tired, soul overflowing.
There’s nothing like it.

What a year. What an honor.

“I’ll be there… unless I’m at a birth.”
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve said that this year, I’d probably have my own birth center by now 😂

Life as a birth doula means:
✨ rearranging plans
✨ answering calls/texts at all hours
✨ keeping my phone charged like my life depends on it
✨ and being on call for the mamas who trust me with one of their biggest moments

But honestly? I wouldn’t trade it for anything. 💜

✨ Moms, I need your wisdom! ✨
As you know, I meet with so many incredible women during pregnancy, and there’s always one common question:

“What do you wish you knew before giving birth that would’ve helped you feel more prepared?”

Whether it was something no one warned you about, a myth you later learned wasn’t true, or a piece of advice that changed everything…I’d love to hear it. 💛

Your insight can help another mama step into her birth experience feeling supported, empowered, and ready.

✨There’s no such thing as too soon to hire your doula✨

From the moment that second line appears, your journey begins and you deserve support from the very start.

And honestly… even the toddlers agree.
📞 The photo you see? A little one calling and texting like,
“Hey Mom, did you book the doula yet?”
Because these babies know support matters early. 😉

With Granted Wishes Birth Services, you receive:
🌱 Pregnancy guidance
💬 Emotional support and reassurance
📚 Evidence-based resources
🤝 A strong, trusting connection
✨ Tools to prepare your mind and body for birth

Hiring your doula early means more time to grow confidence, feel informed, and build the support system you deserve.

If you’re wondering whether it’s too early… it’s not.
We’re here, ready whenever you are. 💛

✨ Be the person you want to work with. ✨
As a doula, this is the standard I hold myself to every single day.

When families invite me into their birth space, they’re choosing someone who is calm, grounded, supportive, and truly invested in their experience. I show up as the kind of person I would want beside me in labor. Someone who listens deeply, advocates respectfully, honors your choices, and believes in your strength.

When you hire me as your doula, you’re not just getting a service…
You’re getting a steady presence, a nurturing guide, and a teammate who is committed to making your birth feel empowering, informed, and uniquely yours. 💛

🍁🧡 Happy Thanksgiving, Families 🧡🍁

Today, I’m holding deep gratitude for every family who has welcomed me into their journey.
For the quiet moments, the powerful moments, the tears, the triumphs, and the love that fills each birth story, thank you.

As a doula, I get a front-row seat to the strength of pregnant women birthing their babies, the devotion of partners, and the first breaths of new life. There’s no greater honor.

Whether you’re preparing to meet your baby soon, savoring your first Thanksgiving as parents, or soaking in those sweet traditions with growing little ones. I’m wishing you warmth, rest, and connection today.

May your home feel cozy, your heart feel full, and your plate be deliciously overflowing.
🧡✨

✨ Birth Story: Audrey’s Beautiful Arrival ✨

At exactly 40 weeks, Audrey decided she was ready to meet her family. When I arrived as her doula, mama was already 4cm at 6:37am, calm and grounded, breathing beautifully through her contractions. We spent some time on the birth ball, swaying, breathing, and staying connected through each wave.

Things moved fast-only 20 minutes later, she was 7cm, and by 7:04am, that powerful urge to push took over. I reminded her to trust her body, breathe deeply, and follow her instincts.

At 7:06am, she began to push and in just five minutes, at 7:11am, sweet Audrey was born! 🌸 She came out with her little arm by her head (a true superhero pose!) and a bit of meconium, but she was strong and perfect from the start.

Mama had a small tear but handled every moment with grace. Audrey was in the left occiput anterior position, and in one of the most empowering moments of the morning, mama cut her own cord- fully owning her birth experience.

We moved into that peaceful golden hour. Audrey’s Apgars were 7 and 8, and by 7:42am, she had her first latch and was nursing like a champ.

I helped mama get comfortable, offered her and grandma some snacks and water, and we took a quiet moment to soak it all in before I slipped out around 10am- heart full and in awe of the strength, love, and beauty that filled that room.

Welcome, Audrey- you were born surrounded by calm, strength, and so much love. 💕

✨ What is a “Tight Nuchal”? ✨

You may have heard your provider or birth team mention a “tight nuchal” during birth but what does that actually mean?

A nuchal cord simply means that baby’s umbilical cord is wrapped around their neck. This is very common and it happens in about 1 in 3 births! Most of the time, it’s completely harmless and babies are born perfectly healthy. 💕

A tight nuchal just means the cord had less slack than usual, making it snug around baby’s neck as they’re being born. In these cases, your provider or birth team might gently slip it over baby’s head or loosen it before the shoulders are born.

👉 The good news: the cord is designed to be strong and flexible, so even when it’s wrapped around, it usually continues to provide oxygen until baby takes their first breaths.

As your doula, I’m there to help keep everyone calm, explain what’s happening in real time, and remind you that your body and baby are working together beautifully, even when birth takes little twists and turns. 🌿💫
