When I was a first-time mom, I had no idea how the hospital system worked. No clue what to look for in a provider or what even my options really were. And honestly, I didn’t know the first thing about modern day childbirth. Being a teen mom at the time, I was so overwhelmed that I let everyone else but me have a say so in how my birth went. Inductions, continuous monitoring, “you’re not allowed to…” statements, condescending doctor and staff. Long story short: I had no voice, no power and little support while navigating the world of hospital-based birth settings.
My three very different birthing experiences are what led me to become a full-spectrum doula and evidence based birth® instructor. Regardless of what path birth takes you, when you are respected, heard and supported it makes for an empowering birth. Your voice, your goals and preferences matter. You’re not a patient, a number seen as a liability. You are a person bringing life into this world. It’s about time they act like it too!
