I’ve supported many c-sections, both planned and unplanned for a number of reasons.

✨ Yes, doulas support C-section births too! ✨
Whether your cesarean is planned or unexpected, a doula can offer emotional grounding, advocate for your preferences, and help you feel empowered in the OR and beyond. 💪

From calming your nerves before surgery… to helping with skin-to-skin and breastfeeding afterward… to processing your experience days or weeks later — you deserve support. 💛
Doulas will get all of the pictures of you and your partner soaking up this time with your newborn!

Birth is birth.
And every birthing person deserves to feel seen, held, and heard — no matter how they deliver. 🫶

📌 Save this if you're planning a cesarean (or want to be prepared just in case).

My books are full for 2025 (mostly because of ) but I’m taking clients with Jan/Feb+ due dates! Let’s set up a consult 💜

So I had a really really hard personal day. It involves my senior dog who got a really sad diagnosis.

Anyways, I opened up my mail to find this incredible gift from my client ❤️

I have always quoted Frozen’s “The Next Right Thing” to clients… kind of joking but also… mostly not.

In birth, there are a million decisions we can make. Sometimes to the point of not being able to actually make the decision. Some call it “analysis paralysis”. We can go down every “well if I do X, it COULD cause Y, which COULD cause Z” route to the point where we’re overwhelmed. Sometimes you just gotta “take a step” and do “the next right thing”. It’s so cheesy, I know. But stick with me…

What feels right to you, right now? What is your gut telling you is the best decision? Because that’s what you have control over. You can’t necessarily control how it might impact the outcome. You do the best with the information you currently have.

As a woman of faith, I also believe we are not powerful enough to mess up God’s plans for us. I always remind clients “He goes before you… He knows the EXACT outcome of this birth”.

This was the perfect gift for me today. We’re going to have to make some tough decisions with our pup moving forward and it was such a sweet reminder that we can only do the best we can.

Thank you so much, Becki. It means more than you’ll ever know ❤️

Another 3-peat client met her baby last night in the comfort of her home with 2 midwives who stood back, watching and waiting. Only quietly stepping in to listen to baby and offer support when the mom asked for it.

This baby made her work! She did amazing and as always, I’m in awe that I get to be invited into a space like this. Thanks for letting me be part of your story for the third time!

A very special client of mine (a 3-peat) got to meet her sweet baby a few days ago! I’ve been at 2 of her other births (both VBACs). This was a slightly unplanned CS after an ECV didn’t turn baby… it was a wild ride but she navigated all the twists and turns thrown at her.

BUMC in downtown Dallas helped accommodate her birth plan. She had multiple nurses backing her and communicating with others in the OR to make sure she was able to see and hold baby ASAP. Her midwife (one of my favorite people in the world, w/ .dfw ) went to bat for her on multiple occasions.

Here is an incredible anesthesiologist who took the time to chat with her before her epidural placement and then came to visit her right before they started her surgery to make sure she was feeling comfortable. The CRNA that was in the OR with her was WONDERFUL! He kept her informed along the way and made sure she was feeling okay both physically and emotionally.

The Lord provided the best people. I am so THANKFUL for the group at BUMC who regularly goes above and beyond for their patients. No hospital is perfect but BUMC is doing SO MANY good things to support patient autonomy and informed consent.

Thank you for allowing me to support you in one of the most intimate moments. Thank you for allowing me to pray over you before surgery. Thank you for trusting me to be in the room with you. I love you and your family so much and am SO proud of you!

Happy Mother’s Day, you beautiful mommas! (With 10 minutes to spare in Texas!)

Happy Mother’s Day to the moms who…
-Get to celebrate with all their babies today
-Are doing all of the things to try to be a mom
-Have a baby (or babies) waiting for them in eternity
-Have stepped in to be a mom to someone who needed a home
-Are single moms working their tails off to provide for their family
-Are stepmoms
-Are stay-at-home moms
-Are working moms
-Have a complex relationship with their children
-Are filling in as moms until their kids can be reunified with their parents
-Are birth mothers that made the difficult and sacrificial decision to allow another mother to raise her child(ren)

Being a mother, in so many forms, is one of the highest callings there is. Being trusted with the lives of tiny people is no small feat!

I’m so thankful to get to walk alongside so many of you during your journey into and through motherhood.
