Daddy suited up and ready to catch his surprise baby! The look on his face says it all!

Serving at a hospital where they truly…I mean truly take patient preference and autonomy to heart is refreshing. I love attending births . They always make me feel like part of their team….and daddy too. 💙

It seems everything in life gets tainted with the ideology of man.

I chose doula work to get away from policies and procedures that tied my hands and kept me from truly doing what I love...serving/ministering to pregnant women and their families. I can't even fathom going back to work in labor and delivery after what I have experienced this past 4 years. The knowledge I have gained from observing home-birth midwives and nurse midwives in the hospital setting (their hands are still tied to an extent) have flamed my passion for women's healthcare even more. There is a better way....

Being a doula is beyond a certification. It is an intuition. Passion. A deep rooted wisdom that is planted often long before we even come to this profession. The women I know who do this well aren't maneuvering through position changes and hip squeezes because of a random class they sat through on a Saturday and Sunday. They are connected and fully committed to preserving their client's dignity and wishes. Empathy runs in their veins and can't possibly be taught.

These are the ancient ways of women. We are created to touch, to nurture, to console, and to comfort. How can you govern this?

I remember as a girl stuffing my gown and pushing out babies. Being fully enamored with labor and birth before I even had a clue how babies were made. I was gentle with babies and given the role as caregiver at a young age. I was born to mother.to nurse.to love.and to be a servant to women...to be a DOULA.

Legislation will change our profession. I don't care how it is brought about. All good things end with good intentions.

The love hormone oxytocin brings pleasure and helps elevate pain.

🤍Did you know when you kiss your spouse during contractions it can actually minimize your pain?

🤍Did you know in*******se with or**sm produces large amounts of oxytocin-the hormone needed for birth? (What gets baby in gets baby out)

🤍Semen has prostaglandins which soften the cervix.

🤍Birth can be one of the most intimate times for couples and bring them closer than they’ve ever been.

🤍Husbands you are such a vital part of your wife’s birth team. You are her strength.

🤍Romance is important in pregnancy and postpartum. Staying connected is hard but so needed.

Take time to enjoy each other before baby comes, during labor, and postpartum. Love is why you’re here. 🤍

Sweet surprise last night after many answered prayers! This birth had unique challenges that God worked out beforehand. It is only Him who could orchestrate the details with such precision. He’s such a good Father!

Things I would change in the hospital if I could:

*make hospital rooms look like a bedroom
*ditch the sterile drapes and gowns (birth is not sterile)
*nice labor gowns
*intermediate fetal monitoring (would love to talk to someone smarter than me in regards to how a tracing can go from minimal variability and a few lates to beautiful with position change. I wonder how many unnecessary c-sections have happened due to this?)
*minimal disturbances
*minimal people in and out
*quiet voices
*no small talk
*hidden medical equipment
*minimal staff during pushing and birth (do we really need nursery nurses if everything is fine?)
*true delayed cord clamping
*patience!
*healthy snacks
*healthy meals
*supportive language
*hands out of the va**na while pushing

Unmediated or not. Epidural or not. Women deserve a safe space to give birth to their baby. A calm place they can feel comfortable and supported.
