Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Just in case any of you were following it, and because I want to brag, I thought I would let you all know that my little boy, Elijah Eugene was born at 1:57 pm on November 23, 2007. He weighed 9 lbs 4.5 oz and was 23.75 inches long. It was a beautiful, unmedicated birth. I labored at home for about 2 days before going to the hospital because he was posterior and labor was failing to progress. With the help of my fantastic doula we were able to get him turned late Thursday night by doing some wacky exercises, and arrived at the hospital just after 12 Friday morning. The next 13 hours went by very quickly, and I managed to push him out in 40 minutes! He is in perfect health and I feel great, considering.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 A doula is basically an advocate who " mothers the mother " during, and/or after the birth. A very valuable resource.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 A doula (which is Greek for " woman helper " ) is a professional birth assistant. I highly recommend a doula for anyone, whether it is their first birth or their 10th, whether they want a natural birth or an epidural. Doulas are a world of help in the delivery room and before and after birth, without taking the place of your birth partner. I would not have achieved my goal of having a natural birth had it not been for the help, encouragement and expertise of my doula. She was fantastic, and to anyone in the Denver or Colorado Springs area, I would love to give you her information. She was amazing! , cheryl bullock <cooee.shari wrote: > > Congradulations-but what is a doula--husband i suspect-----my son was 9lb 1 ans 1\2 oz-that was like trying to give birth to a bull elephant-------good work -hope u have years of bliss xx > > Susan Porter <porterwk2001 wrote: cong > Be a better sports nut!
