Do you have questions that have gone unanswered?

• Can I have a vaginal birth after 1+ cesarean deliveries? 

• Do I really need another blood test?

• I was told I am high risk. What does that mean exactly and what are my options?

• Wait, my blood glucose levels are high. Does this mean I have gestational diabetes?

• Am I gaining too much weight? Too little?

• Do I need another Tdap especially if I just had one two years ago?

• I have no idea how or what to eat. Can you help?

• My last birth was so traumatic. How can I make sure that I don't repeat that experience?

• How do I tell my care practitioner "no"?

• My baby is breech. What are my options if I don't want a C-section?

• I'm totally unsure of how birth will unfold. I need someone to explain it to me. 

• Can you help me with strategies to prepare for birth?

• I'm feeling completely overwhelmed with everything and not sure what to do. How do I discern what's right for me?

​

Let's talk about it so you can enjoy your pregnancy. 

​

I work with pregnant women to answer their questions and ensure they can make informed decisions. I help explain the choices they will face during pregnancy and birth and feel less overwhelmed with these choices by helping to develop their birth plan, to base their decisions on their values, to discern what God is asking of them, and help them feel supported throughout their entire pregnancy.

​

There is truly no greater investment you can give your baby than a trusting, supportive, and well-informed birth and postpartum period.

​

All coaching sessions will operate from a mother-led approach. I will offer you non-medical support that is consistent with traditional birth companionship.

​

My approach:

• holistic, non-medical mentoring and education

• belief that your body knows  how to birth your baby

• knowledgeable peer support

• educating you on physiologic birth, the facts, & how to prepare for birth:

  • breech​

  • twins

  • interventions

  • ultrasound

  • prenatals

  • pitocin

  • VBAC

  • C-sections

  • and more!
