Amazing Moments as a Doula

It seems that I have been going to births for most of my adult life. The first birth I ever was at was for my niece Brianna, and that was 22 years ago.

Lots of friends...texting them on her tablet ( you should have seen my face when she sent me her first text)...small temper tantrums.

By time we are done with this load of kid…
