These days, there’s a lot of pressure to be as productive and successful as possible – and to ensure that you are going after major goals, pursuing your dreams, and “seizing the day” in as many different ways as possible.
One consequence of this “hustle culture” ethos of always maximizing productivity is that it can be pretty easy to end up burning out, and to come to view everyday comforts and luxuries as somehow gratuitous, irresponsible, and overly self-indulgent.
You may have read about or seen in your ultrasound that a baby can be posterior, and that news can sometimes be not exactly what you want to hear. However, our birth doulas are well trained in how to provide physical support prenatally and during birth to help, while also are able to direct you to other resources that may help.
Sometimes we take breathing for granted, because, well, we normally don’t think about it. However, we are challenging you to really notice your breath.
For each birth doula client, we offer two prenatal appointments. This gives us a great time to learn about you, and for you to learn about us.
Doulas can be known for having a bag of tricks we bring to each bring. Are you picturing a clown car of comfort measures? Well, not so much.
A PADsicle! What? A popsicle? NO! A PADsicle. That’s right we are talking about the FAMOUS PADsicle today.
