Kristin Rahn, Birth Services

Kristin Rahn, Birth Services Experienced birth doula and placenta encapsulation services. Serving the Fort Wayne area since 2010.

Birth doulas provide emotional, physical, and informational support for laboring women and their partners. We typically work independently and are hired privately, and serve our clients alongside, and in addition to, nurses, doctors, and midwives. Birth can be a highly stressful time and doulas provide continuous support at home, in the birth place, and through the period immediately following the birth. We also meet with clients at length prenatally and postpartum. "Support" can mean many different things for many different situations and preferences, but by and large a good doula will always meet the client where she is, listen to and honor what she wants, and have no agenda of her own. I have kept a busy doula practice, serving a wide array of clients at many different types of births and regularly providing placenta encapsulation services, since early 2010. I’ve allowed that busyness to slow down significantly since 2020. I maintained certification through DONA International from 2012 through 2020.

I’ve still got it. A bit of that doula magic. This is baby #5 for me with this family. ❤️

A privilege I have never, and WILL never, take for granted is bearing witness to others’ stories.

I may not post here or attend too many births as a doula anymore (though I still do, on occasion!), but I’m shifting into my next phase of supporting folks. Stay tuned!

When people allow you to know about their pain and talk about it, take your shoes off. It’s a holy place.
Be humble, be kind when someone shows you vulnerability.
