💭let’s talk things that make labor longer + harder…

Reason # 10283548 why you should hire a doula!
My job as a doula is to serve not only as emotional, mental and physical support to a laboring mama, but also as a protector of the goals, space + environment.
I got your back, mama. You got this. 🫶🏼

So… what happens during the rare + unfortunate occasion that I can’t make it to a birth??? ☹️
Read below, because that’s exactly what happened this past week. ⬇️

Sweet Baby Ella May was welcomed earthside yesterday morning! 🎀👶🏻
Her mama texted me Tuesday night at 11:11 pm (magical timing ✨) to inform me she was having contractions. Unfortunately, my household had been hit with the stomach flu on Monday, which meant I was not going to be able to make it in person. 😷
So what happens then? What’s the game plan??? After talking to my client; we settled on the plan of virtual support with me trying my absolute best to find a back up doula! You may be wondering, who pays the back up doula? As stated in my contract, in the event where this may happen, all costs and expenses of a back up doula are covered by me!
I reached out to 4 local BisMan doulas + 2 doulas in Dickinson, and asked if any of them would be willing to be tagged in. While waiting for a response from the doulas, I virtually supported this laboring mama from my home, texting what positions/methods to try next, sending affirmations + a playlist of music. At about 6 AM, one of the Dickinson doulas, which is the phenomenal , answered me + told me she was on her way! I continued virtual support, updating both my client + Mary along the way. Once Mary got to the hospital, I let her take over + work her doula magic!
A little over an hour after Mary arrived at the hospital, this sweet girl was born! My client had the goal of a pitocin-free, pain-med-free hospital birth and SHE DID IT! This mama is so, so strong 💪🏼 She rolled with the punches of being virtually supported, plans changing + was an absolute superhero through it all!👏🏼✨🙌🏼
Mary was the absolute BEST backup doula! (pun intended 😉) She drove all the way from Dickinson to Bismarck to cover for me + updated me as often as she could. Mary + I had both attended the same doula training, so I had personally witnessed her abilities as a doula. I had no doubt my client was in amazing hands. I am forever so, so grateful for Mary! 👏🏼💕

EMMANUEL. GOD WITH US. ✨
“…for a long time the world was weary, and maybe we still are at times, but he appeared in the middle of the night, born to a virgin in the dark of a stable, and suddenly people of all kinds —— all ages, all races, all backgrounds, all walks of life —— found worth.”

Merry Christmas to you all 🎄🫶🏼

Attending a birth is always amazing. Being trusted to be part of such a special space + moment in a mama’s life is the most incredible part of my job.

But this birth, was a little more than that.
Watching + supporting one of my childhood best friends through her labor + birth will always hold a special place in my heart.
These moments, frozen in time in my memories as a doula. The tears I shed watching her + her remarkable strength.
She and I have gone through so much life together; our first heartbreaks, dancing the night away at proms, cheering on the same varsity cheer team + crying at each others graduations and weddings…
& now, to have the privilege to watch her become a mom.
Her labor was beautiful, fierce, full of triumphs and tears.
& I am forever thankful that I was there to witness it. 🫶🏼

she’s here 👣

her mama came in to the hospital early Thursday morning + had an incredibly tough labor journey since.
but despite all the bumps, she was an absolute rockstar through it all + delivered her sweet baby girl in less than 5 minutes of pushing time!

what an honor to witness + support yet another mama through her labor journey. I truly am in such awe. 🥹
