Magic


Yesterday Emily let me come to her birth and be her doula. She was amazing and so strong; she gave birth completely naturally.

That moment when baby Lincoln emerged from his watery home was pure magic.

I think I'm hooked.

You are so amazing and the perfect person for that! It was fun having you over on saturday!

Yes, your calming, soft voice would make you a wonderful Doula. Not to mention your other great qualities.

So, I think I'd like a Doula. But I only want someone like you or Kassie. Would you or Kass be able to recommend someone in the Denver area? My husband is wonderful and very supportive...but he’s not the most emotional man I’ve met...and I want some serious babying and attention. I also don’t want a C-section...but I would have died unless the doctor’s delivered me as an emergency C-section...so I don’t want to say NEVER. I also want an epidural and I don’t want a doula who would judge me for that. Do you think I could find one that would work with my personal birthing goals? Let me know. Hope you're feeling well. Only 23 more weeks for you! Miss you much!
