Wowza y’all! I know 50 births is a drop in the bucket for the more seasoned doulas…but I am amazed. Everyday I wake up and I can’t believe I get to live this life.
52 babies
49 mothers
15 locations
I hear often “I don’t know how you do it.” And there are times I don’t either. I’m not going to lie some days are hard…days that I come home and say to my hubs “You know I don’t mean this, but I don’t think I can be a doula anymore.” And I don’t mean it, I just have to be able to say how hard it is. But I wouldn’t (and don’t think I could) do anything else.
What I find myself saying to my mamas and to myself more and more is “It’s hard and good” and often they are a package deal.
I believe with everything in me that this is what I was created for.
Thanks for coming along for the ride with me!
