About Me

I am the mother of a one year old little boy. I started being interested in the birthing field because I had a Cesarean birth that was unnecessary and I didn't realize the emptiness I would feel afterwards. I started delving deep into natural childbirth and am now a Doula and a HypnoBirthing Practitioner. I love childbirth and want to do everything I can to empower women to claim their birthright (literally!)Myspace Layouts

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Women who want a better birth experience. So many women feel traumatized after birth and feel like they're alone in the experience. I want to change that. You can have the birth you desire! Your body can conceive, you can have an enjoyable pregnancy, and not only can your body give birth easily and beautifully: it's supposed to!

Television:

Don't watch all the dramatized birth series! They're put on TV for a reason...because they're scary! If you're going to watch anything watch House of babies on the Discovery Health Channel. It's on at 4:00 am. :)

Books:

Mind Over Labor HypnoBirthing The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth Obstetric Myths vs. Research Realities The Birth Partner The Doula Book Ina May Gaskin's Guide to Childbirth

Heroes:

Doctors, Midwives, Nurses, Childbirth Educators, Doulas, and Women who are changing the world of birthing from a medical materialistic event, to an emotional, physical, and spiritual one.
