Baby delivered!😅 Anyone else wish it was that easy?lol

Having a doula by your side makes it “almost” this easy😜

The TENS unit - a wonderful tool in my birth bag.

TENS is generally most effective:
* During early labor and active labor
* For back labor, especially if the baby is occiput posterior (“sunny side up”)

The four electrodes are usually placed:
* Two pads on either side of the spine around T10–L1 (upper lumbar/lower thoracic region or under the bra band)
* Two pads around S2–S4 (over the sacrum; think sacral dimples)

The TENS unit can be used alongside other comfort measures such as counter pressure, hip squeezes, movement, massage, and breathing techniques.

I personally found the TENS unit helpful in my last labor. Do you think this is a tool you would use during labor? Or maybe you’ve had the opportunity to use it already! How was your experience? Let me know in the comments below😊

Some families reach out in the first trimester, wanting steady guidance through pregnancy.
Others find me days before their due date (or even after baby arrives!)—when they realize they want extra care and calm support.

Whenever you invite a doula in, it’s the right time.
Because support is not a deadline—it’s a relationship. 💛
