A traumatic childbirth puts breastfeeding at risk. This 2025 exploratory secondary data analysis, however, found that compared with those who breastfed, the women who did not breastfeed after birth trauma had more depression and PTSD symptoms and a weaker bond with their baby. The study concluded that for better maternal mental health after a difficult birth, mothers need targeted, trauma-informed interventions to support breastfeeding.

Hi there! I’m Sara Krivanec, a birth doula coming up on 25 years, childbirth educator and lactation counselor at MyBirth. I’m taking less births now and attending repeat clients, VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) hopefuls, and new clients having subsequent babies (2nd, 3rd, ect…).

Here’s my availability looking into winter and spring of 2026. My Doulamatch link is in my bio. I can’t wait to support you and your growing family! ✨

We are so proud of this MyBirth doula client who took “Stay with your Breath” to the next level. She was so calm and in the zone that she unintentionally had her baby at home instead of at the hospital with her midwife and doula!! The birth went so smoothly and mom and baby were great the entire time. We were also impressed with her husband, whose energy helped her feel safe and secure. What a birth- what a VBAC!! ♥️

You’re invited to the first ever Peri Meet Up at MyBirth on Oct 18! We have so many options and supports for the perinatal period, but what about for what’s next?

Join us for a fun, welcoming evening to talk, learn, laugh and connect over the complexities of Perimenopause & Menopause. We’ll have some good food (suggested donation), real talk and hopefully you’ll leave feeling more supported and with more options & resources.

Do any of the herbs thought to boost lactation have scientific backing? Yes. This 2025 systematic review analyzes the effects of malunggay (moringa oleifera) on milk volumes and prolactin levels. Its consistently positive findings set this botanical apart from the rest. Free download here:
