Water/Home birth

Today I attended my first home/water birth.  WOW!  What an experience!  It was a total blessing to be apart of a team where there was so much respect and love in the home.  Congratulations to Kristy & David on the birth of Noah David!

Birth Quote

"Just as a woman's heart knows how and when to pump, her lungs to inhale, and her hand to pull back from a fire, so she knows how and when to give birth!"

What does a doula do?

“A doula enters the space of a labouring woman and is highly responsive and aware of her needs, moods, changes, and unspoken feelings. She has no need to control or smother. Every pregnant woman should have the benefits of a doula. This person does not detract from the role of the baby’s father or co-parent, by the way. It enhances it and leaves him (or her) free to do the very important job of loving the mother. ”
