10/16/08: Oh how time flies! I've been very busy this Fall with some new endeavors, specifically one that is fascinating to me, helping women avoid postpartum depression. I've been studying with Jodi Selander of Placenta Benefits, and hope to become a Placenta Encapsulation Specialist within the next few months! I've been very busy with some family things and Grad school is keeping me very booked. I will however be accepting Birth Doula clients starting in March of 2009!

6/20/08: I'm taking a little time off in July and I'll be away in August to help with the arrival of Idaho's newest Cupcake. This next baby holds a special place in my heart, not only her Doula, she'll make me an Aunt!

6/10/08: Welcome little MAS! Weighing in at 6lbs 9oz, this gorgeous little peanut made a speedy entrance into this world on a perfect June afternoon. Her mommy had warned me about her fast deliveries, boy was she right! Congrats to one very strong beautiful mommy, DS! GREAT JOB!!! (BS, You did great too!)

My job is to support you in whatever birth method or birth decision YOU choose.

a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your
heart go walking around
outside your body.”

“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.”
