Providing compassionate postpartum doula care for the Chicagoland area.
Having a postpartum doula can be an invaluable resource for your family in the time after your baby's birth. I specialize in all types of postpartum situations, from home births to hospital births to adoptions and even families who are grieving the loss of a baby. My job is to care for the mother and her partner (and perhaps other children) so that everyone has the inner resources to care for the
new baby. Postpartum doulas can help with breastfeeding, infant care, sibling care, cook nutritious meals, decrease incidence of postpartum blues, and help your family get off to a great start among many other things. I am passionate about families, children, and making this special time in your lives also the happiest! Please look around and visit my Web site for more details about my services as a postpartum doula!

Well at least it is something! Eating can help significantly with energy during labor. Make sure you are not downing a cheeseburger though...stick to healing foods like bone broth, cooked veggies, smoothies, cereals/porridges, etc. Happy laboring!
The American Society of Anesthesiologists has reversed course, now saying that eating a light meal during labor is advisable for pregnant women.

Too many women have been bullied by their doctors or midwives when in labor. This has to stop. A doctor performing a procedure for emergency purposes with consent of the mother is one thing. It is quite a different story to, as a medical professional, use force to show your power over a laboring woman.
