My Other Blog

I promise I haven't been cheating on you... ; )
But I do have another blog...

I just wanted to let you know that I am in the process of training to become a doula. A doula is a woman who helps emotionally support other women in labor (we are not medically trained) but we do get paid to do this and studies have shown that having a doula present greatly reduces the chances of complications and interventions during birth.

I have created a blog to advertise my services as well as give information on birth and support during birth. The blog is called the Cowgirl Doula and you can find it at www.cowgirldoula.blogspot.com . You will find some blog posts overlap, and some do not.

Please help me get the word out about my services in the Lubbock area. I will be offering my services for free for the moment. I need to have experience in many different types of births (hospital, home, birth center, c-section, vbac, hbac, etc.) before I begin charging. I also need to have experience to complete my training.

If you know of anyone who would be interested in me attending their birth please let me know. (I am fine with them hiring another doula who has more experience as well as having me there). But I am also fine with being the only doula on site.

I will be offering my services to anyone within a 2 hour drive of Lubbock and in special circumstances I will look into driving to others births.

Thanks!
Sarah
