My sister is due on May 19 and I will be her "doula" (again!) :) I have been preparing in many little ways, from sewing newborn caps to packing a bag, and being more and more near the phone. It is an amazing time, that is for sure, and indeed very touching to be trusted for such an intimate event.abbyhttp://www.infusionfibers.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-183150652353845442013-05-10T23:34:17.292-04:002013-05-10T23:34:17.292-04:00How wonderful!

All you need to remember is to keep the energy of the room calm and respectful, breathing along with the mother and helping her keep a slow rhythm is better that talking a lot, and be careful not to bear down when she's pushing or you'll eventually wreak havoc with your own pelvic floor (all experienced doulas and midwives had to learn this too!) Read the article 'How dilated am I - external ways of assessing internal dilation' on my blog for a boost of information. And many blessings, may your first birth be an inspiring one! xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-33110046134499348352013-05-09T14:29:46.090-04:002013-05-09T14:29:46.090-04:00did you make that tent? if so can you post instru...did you make that tent? if so can you post instructions :)jammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13653346203016792394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-86512599620740162032013-05-09T10:27:01.903-04:002013-05-09T10:27:01.903-04:00you'll do great. It's so much fun and you...you'll do great. It's so much fun and you seem like you'll be a perfect doula. I always cry when I get home from a birth.
