Induction of Labor Category

I’m currently prepping for tonight’s Childbirth Ed class on Variations and Complications in labor.  We talk about many of the situations couples encounter in the few weeks before and during labor, and we spend a lot of time discussing their options in each of these situations.

I believe that birth is a natural, physiological, emotional, and spiritual process. The female body is designed to give birth. Women who are encouraged, supported, and informed can have incredible and empowering births.

Every woman is different, every birth is different, and every baby is different, however every woman and family deserves support, compassion, and flexibility during the journey of birth.

As a doula my role is to facilitate the natural process - giving the mother every opportunity to allow her birth to unfold. contact
