Instinctive Journey Birth & Parenting

Hello, my name is Mandi Wagnild, owner of Mandi The Doula Birth Services. get more information from my website at http://www.MandiTheDoula.com

I'm a birth and postpartum doula, breastfeeding and childbirth educator, and certified placenta encapsulation specialist. I support a woman and her family physically and emotionally during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period. I provide my clients with the most up-to-the-minute information and research pertaining to pregnancy and birth and help them organize their thoughts and con

fidently communicate their feelings to better advocate for themselves. I work directly for you not your doctor or hospital, so my only interest is what's best for my clients and my information is not biased based on hospital policies or self-interest. I am versatile and adaptable to many types of birth plans and barriers that may impede my clients' progress to their goals. I'm knowledgeable in virtually all variations of birth including high-risk pregnancies, twins, breech birth, inductions, and cesarean sections. I am very skilled at multi-tasking: I can show Mom positions and techniques to greatly ease labor pain, communicate with her birth partner what he can do the help, and be aware of what the doctor or midwife is doing all at the same time. I am a team-player and never interrupt the birth partner or medical providers performing their duties. I am committed to being whatever my clients need to empower them to achieve the pregnancy and birth that they want. read more at http://www.MandiTheDoula.com

Swedish photographer Lennart Nilsson spent 12 years of his life taking pictures of the fetus Developing in the womb.

These incredible photographs were taken with conventional cameras with macro lenses, an endoscope and scanning electron microscope.

Nilsson used a magnification of hundreds of thousands and “worked” right in the womb. His first photo of the human fetus was taken in 1965.
