Virtual Visits

Between slight technical difficulties with my computer crashing and losing everything; my selfie stick clicker dying to get behind the scene shots; and zoom subscription failure, I completed my first virtual prenatal yesterday.

My clients and I finalized the birthing plan, went over birthing techniques, labor positions, partner support and answered any questions or concerns, Spoke on the postpartum period before I go on call this up coming week.

It's always a pleasure getting to know about my clients and seeing their relationship dynamics. Making them laugh and ensuring them that I am there to support them.

My support partner was a friend of mine who jumped at the opportunity to assist me and was more than willing to get in different positions, get personal and make sure my client had great visuals. This was the best picture I got out of the prenatal visit lol.

My notes now include getting batteries for my clicker so I can get great birthing pictures.

With both clients permission

Meet Isabel and Kaliq

This beautiful couple was seeking a BIPOC doula to help support them bring their 1st baby earth side.

Isabel wanted the most care, support, and education as she prepares for motherhood and Yesterday was their first prenatal visit with me.

We talked, laughed, I met their dog Pandora, did talking, meditation and listening exercises. Birth planned and went over any questions or concerns they may have had before their 2nd visit.

I wanted to touch on partner support today. Throughout the entire visit Kaliq was attentive, listening to his partners concerns, worries, and truths that surrounded pregnancy, labor and postpartum. He offered complete support; words of encouragement and affirmation and wanted Isabel to know he was going to be there and will do whatever she needed to have a positive birthing experience.

It was a joy to watch their dynamic and reassurance of each other. Honestly felt the love between them and I felt honored to be a part of their birthing circle.

In this pic we were doing some deep breathing exercises where Isabel felt the most comfortable. They counted together and Kaliq mixed in positive affirmations and watched her relaxed and made jokes to help her laugh as a distaction.

Birth Affirmations and Positive Mindfulness!

An informed birth is an empowered birth and an empowered birth leaves a birthing person with a more positive birthing experience.

I wanted to touch on my birth prep gift bags. With most birth packages offered my clients will receive a gift bag with items to help prepare them for birth.

This year I decided to add birth affirmation cards to my birth gift bags to help remind my clients how strong they are. They will receive these during their prental visit with me. With these affirmation cards my clients can review them whenever they want as they get closer to meeting their baby/babies, while in labor and even after birth.

is their super power and they have control over their body, birth and baby and should trust their natural ability to birth.

Each card is doubled sided leaving a total of 20 affirmations. Hopefully they like them🥰.

Just in case you missed it, let's talk about it.

Heres Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy. He when interviewed said, "...people of color have a higher incidence of maternal mortality." "And that the states poor maternal mortality rate is only an outlier because of the high proportion of black women in the state."

The article also continues to state that Louisiana is 47 out of 48 states assesed which is amongst one of the worst.

Cassidy continues to announce that "4black mothers die for every one white mother." Which the article states is on of the worst in the world.

This is definitely posted to inform you of the Maternal mortality crisis that is taking place against black birthers and change needs to happen.

Also keep in mind Louisiana passed the "Trigger Law" which will affect black women the most.

Happy Monday,

Sooo just incase you weren't aware there is a baby formula shortage.

Some responses in regards to the shortage is telling birthing individuals to just breastfeed because it's cheaper and better for the baby. Well, that response is totally insensitive and disrespectful to many birthers and let me share why.

> There are breastfeeding disparities. 1%-5% of women cannot breastfeed.

> 10%-15% never begin to breastfeed.

> 4% stop within the 1st week of life this is due to a number of reasons:
-improper latch; not being able to bond; inverted ni***es or flat; discouragement; lack of support; resources like a lactation consultant or IBCLC, education,etc.

> 60% don't breastfeed as long as they intend to due to:
- cultural norms, work environment or parental leave, taking medication, unsupportive hospital or medical practices, not being able to produce enough, concerns on weight and nutrition of the baby, etc.

> many simply do not want to.

-Donor milk is an option as a resource.
-Lactation consultants or IBCLCs help with all of your lactation needs and help.
-Breastfeeding classes are available.

Sidenote:I was trying to share the statistics but the pictures won't fit.

A Special Mother's Day to all those who identify as a mother.
❤Single Mothers
🧡Foster Mothers
💛Mothers who have lost
💚Expecting Mothers
💙New Mothers
💜Those longing to be mothers
🤎Stepmothers
🤍Fur Baby Mothers
💟Adoptive Mothers

You were chosen for that baby and their life no matter how short or long. YOU ARE A MOTHER and deserve to be celebrated and acknowledge however way you wish. There's no right way to celebrate Mothers Day and do not let the opinions of others overrule your wants and wishes whether it's to be alone or to be together. You are valued, respected and loved!

Happy Friday.

This is your reminder to set boundaries!!

By setting boundaries you are giving yourself more control regarding your pregnancy, birth and postpartum period.

What do boundaries look like?

1. Announcements.
Announcing YOUR pregnancy and the birth of YOUR baby! Set the tone from the beginning of how announcements will be made by YOU not others. If you don't want to announce anything at all, you have the right to not share. Not everyone has well wishes or not everyone needs to know. Announcements should be an agreed upon decision of the birther and whom they want it shared with and when. This also goes with picture taking and social media when visiting during labor and postpartum.

2. Visitation.
Setting visitation limits before and after birth. Who is allowed to come and when. Often excited friends and family want to come over right away to see the baby, but you want to rest and enjoy your privacy. Set those visitation lists early and do not feel bad about it. Too many visitors during your time of healing can add additional stress

3. Affection towards the baby.
Kissing, hugging, touching...you can say no. Germs, unwanted exposure, viruses, etc. Kindly set those limits of how you want people to interact with YOUR baby.

4. Unwanted advice or Suggestions.
If you don't want to hear it, let it be known. Not all advice is good advice. Look at how we subject ourselves to the advice by social media trenders and those with negative or traumatic impact/opinions and how that damages our psyche around pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Set the tone and turn it down early. Your sanity and well-being are more important and will thank you.

Remember it's Your Body, Your Birth, and Your Baby!

Planning your birth and wanting support.

Don't wait until the last minute to book your birth support. Doulas and midwives are here to support you during this momentous time in your life.

Waiting until the last minute can put a hault or not having birth team support. Doulas take a certain amount of births a month (1-4) just as midwives, who as medical support, can refuse clients late in pregnancy as they have not been providing your prenatal care.

The sooner you book the better. This will help save your estimated due month; get proper care and support from the beginning; give you time to save and pay for your support and have the birthing experience you would like. Waiting creates more stress for you.

This also goes for birthing centers. The more you wait, the less likely chance they'll have space to accommodate you during labor and birth.

Create that birth plan and with a doula you won't be planning alone. We're with you every step of the way.

P.S. consultations are free to allow you and a potential doula or midwife to connect and see if you are a good fit to work together. Consultations Do Not Reserve Your Support. Make sure you pay your deposit or retainer to save your birth month. I work on a first come first serve basis and usually only take 1 birth a month.
