Love me an overnight birthday party!🥳🙌🤩

I was blessed to witness a wonderful birth this evening!

This birth had us a little concerned as Mom was stuck at 4 cm for a very long time. So we were all surprised and delighted when she shot up to 9.5 cm and then met her baby an hour later. 🥹

I enjoyed a short break from attending births last month, and my ADHD was like “You don’t need to relax, let’s tackle some big home projects instead!”

And I’m so happy I did! This bedroom is exactly what I’ve always wanted, and it’s going to be a perfect retreat for recovering from those long doula supports.

I got to attend a wonderful first-time mom induction this morning. I arrived around midnight. This momma worked so hard bringing her baby here, including pushing for nearly 4 hours. Women are amazing, and I'm so blessed to witness some of their greatest moments!

Sunday's birth took a lot of unexpected twists and turns but ended with a new momma snuggling her sweet baby boy! 😍

Today I got to hang out with another doula's client and support her for several hours of her labor. 🤰

Having backup doulas and backing up for other doulas is an intrical part of this work. 🤝

As I am always saying, Birth is ✨unpredictable✨and sometimes two clients go into labor at the same time. I'm super blessed to know so many amazing doulas who back up for me. 🙌

In today's case, I provided about 6 hours of support before her main doula was able to join her (she'd be attending another birth down the hall). 👶

As always, I love this work, and I feel honored Steffanie Thomas, CD trusts me with her clients when needed. 💗

This labor went slow then fast then slow then fast again. Loved every minute of this roller coaster ride! 😍

Loved attending this birth!! This induction went quicker than any of us thought it would, and this mama had a look of pure joy on her face after pushing out her baby (no coaching, no holding her breath....maybe no getting out of the tub 🤫😉). Absolutely amazing!

Women are amazing, and I'm so glad I get to support so many through this life-changing experience! 💗

I am always cautioning first-time moms that inductions can be very long experiences. 2-3 days is not uncommon from admission to baby.

But birth is unpredictable....

This first-time mom's medically necessary induction took only 8 hours! 🙌

This definitely doesn't happen every time (it is probably my shortest ever for a client), but it's a lesson in that you truly never do know how birth is going to go.
