October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. 💚🕊️

Pregnancy and infant loss can be an incredibly isolating experience, and grief looks different for every family. Whether you’ve experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, or the loss of an infant, your grief matters, your baby matters, and you deserve compassionate support.

Did you know that about 1 in 4 known pregnancies ends in miscarriage? Pregnancy loss is more common than many people realize. These losses are not something families should have to carry in silence, and no one should feel they have to grieve on a timeline.

As a team of Full Spectrum Doulas, our doulas are trained to support families through miscarriage and pregnancy loss, navigate the experience of stillbirth, and provide care and compassion following infant loss. You don’t have to navigate these moments alone.

Here in our community, organizations like Life After Loss and WellMama - Perinatal Support offer compassionate spaces for families to share their stories, find connection, and feel supported as they navigate grief.

This month, and every month, we hold space for the babies gone too soon and the families who carry their love with them. We see you. We remember with you. And we are here for you.

If you or someone you love is navigating pregnancy or infant loss, please know that support is available, and you do not have to walk this path alone. 💚

Here’s a little peek behind the scenes at the Birthing Center at PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center RiverBend in Springfield!

Did you know there’s a special support area connected to your birth room where your baby can receive a little extra help transitioning to breathing after birth, if needed?

Sometimes, babies need a little extra support, such as gentle suction or pressurized oxygen, to help them get those first breaths established. The great thing is that this equipment is right nearby, allowing the care team to support your baby and, when possible, bring them right back to your chest for those precious first moments together. 🤍

If you’re a first-time parent, we know that knowing what to expect can help ease some of the anxiety surrounding labor and delivery. We want you to feel informed, prepared, and a little more confident as you get ready to meet your baby!

What else would you like to see or learn about before heading to the hospital for birth? Let us know in the comments! We’d love to help make the unknown feel a little less overwhelming.

We’re so excited to share this sweet feedback about one of our newest team members, Alex! 🥑✨

“Alex, you brought a sense of peace to the house that I didn’t realize was missing until you walked in. I can’t wait to work with you again!”

We are SO grateful to have Alex on the Avocado Doulas team! There’s something so special about hearing how a doula’s presence can bring comfort, calm, and support to a family during the postpartum season. Feedback like this from our clients reminds us why this work matters so much.

Have you worked with Doula Alex yet? If so, we welcome you to share your experience below!☺️

Contact naps are precious, and so is having time to care for yourself.☺️

For one of our clients, holding her baby close and honoring those sweet contact naps is important. But she also wants the space to take a shower, get in a workout, take a nap, or simply tend to herself for a little while.

That’s where postpartum doula support can make such a beautiful difference. During a 4-hour daytime shift, our doulas can hold and care for baby while parents get to step away without feeling like they have to choose between meeting her baby’s needs and meeting her own.

Postpartum support is about creating space for both. Because caring for yourself isn’t separate from caring for your baby. It’s part of it. 🌿

Avocado Doulas offers 4-hour daytime postpartum shifts once or twice a week, providing compassionate, in-home support during those tender early months of parenthood.

You don’t have to do it all alone. 💚

🥑 It’s our 4th Birthday! 🥑

Four years ago today, Avocado Doulas officially launched as a full-service agency! 💚

On September 15, 2022, we gathered together for our launch party with big dreams, full hearts, and no idea just how much this “little avocado” doula agency would grow.

And now, FOUR YEARS later, we’re looking back with so much gratitude for every family, birth, postpartum journey, loss, new beginning, and beautiful moment you’ve trusted us to be part of.

From those very first clients to the families we’re supporting today, you are the reason Avocado Doulas exists and continues to grow. 💚

We’d LOVE to celebrate this milestone with you! 🎉

Have you worked with Avocado Doulas over the past four years?
We’d love to read your birth story, favorite memory, testimonial or even just a little love in the comments!

If you have any photos from your time with us, please share them! We’d love to see the babies who have grown, the families we’ve had the honor of supporting, and all the memories we’ve made along the way.

And if you’ve ever recommended us to a friend, shared one of our posts, cheered us on, hired us, referred a family, or simply followed along…thank you. 🥹

Here’s to four beautiful years of Avocado Doulas, and to all the families who have made them possible. 🌱🥑

Happy 4th Birthday, Avocado Doulas! Here’s to everything we’ve grown together and everything still to come. 💚

We work together with your OBs and Midwives as a part of your birth team. 🥑

A strong support system can make all the difference when you’re preparing for birth, navigating the unexpected, and settling into life with your baby.

Doulas and OBs bring different strengths to your care, but we share the same goal: supporting you throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

We’re proud to collaborate with our local providers and build relationships rooted in communication, trust, and respect. When your care team works together, you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.

Because you deserve a village that sees you, supports you, and works together to help you feel confident and cared for. 🤍

PostpartumSupport

Postpartum can be a little messy. And that’s okay. We get it. 💚

You don’t need to have the house clean, your hair done, or even be fully dressed when we arrive. You don’t need to feel like you’re hosting us, because you’re not.

We’re here to meet you exactly where you are. Early parenthood comes with so much to learn, adjust to, and navigate. Sometimes what you need most is someone beside you offering steady support, an extra set of hands, and a little reassurance that you’re doing just fine.

Let us help you find your rhythm in this new chapter. You deserve to be cared for, too. 🫶

If you or a loved one is having baby soon and could use some extra postpartum support, reach out to us to schedule a consultation to discuss a postpartum care plan.

Your birth education matters. 🤍

One of the sweetest details from this birth was seeing our client’s birth books right there beside her hospital bed. She brought the resources that had helped her prepare, learn, and build confidence for her birth.

Birth education isn’t about guaranteeing a certain kind of birth. It’s about knowing your options, understanding your choices, finding your voice, and having tools to lean on when things don’t go exactly as planned.

Our clients bring all sorts of things to comfort them through birth. Books, music, special or comfort items from home, affirmations, familiar scents, and so much more.

Your birth education comes with you, wherever and however you birth. 🤍

✨Our team is growing! We’re hiring!✨

We’re looking for a doula to join our team for backup + overflow birth and postpartum support, including overnights.

Ideally, you’re a THW-certified doula, but we’re especially interested in finding someone whose values, communication style, and philosophy of care align with ours. Experience matters, but the right fit matters more. 💚

Interested or know someone who might be? We’d love to get to know you!

Email [email protected] with a letter of interest sharing:

🥑 Your experience + training
🥑 Your availability
🥑 Your philosophy of care
🥑 How you approach communication with clients + fellow doulas
🥑 What you value most when supporting families
🥑 Anything else that helps us get a feel for who you are and how you show up in this work

We look forward to hearing from you! Please share to spread the word!

🌈 Happy Pride Month from Avocado Doulas! 🌈

There is no easy way to have a baby, but your identity and family structure shouldn’t make it harder.

In a system that often merely tolerates or even excludes, we affirm and celebrate. We’re here to help you navigate the myriad of complexities and nuances that come with your individual circumstances.

LGBTQIA+ families often have long, complex, and emotionally fraught journeys to parenthood, and we’re here for it. With open hearts and helping hands, we’re with you every step of the way.
What parents worry about, prepare for, and plan for when a new baby is coming is fundamentally the same across all types of families. At Avocado Doulas, our clients don’t need to explain their relationship, their identity, or their fertility journey. We know. We get it. And we’re in it with you.

We’ll be at Eugene Pride on Saturday, June 27 at the Lane Events Center! Come by our booth and say hi. We’d love to meet you and celebrate together. 💚🥑🏳️‍🌈
