Words of Affirmation and Support

I have witnessed so many births over the years even before I became a doula. One thing that I have come to know about anyone who have given birth is that they never forget that experience especially if it was negative. When most people recount their birth stories they tell the tale as if it is new to them or just happened yesterday. It is so important to speak life and positivity during these times of transition and intensity.

As a doula I want the recounts of my clients to those of happiness and joy. We can never fully predict how a labor is going to go. We can only be there to partner and power through with our clients ans their families.

It is my duty to plant seeds of support and accomplishment. Often times when labors people solely focus on the negativity. Dilation for example dilation in only one piece of a huge puzzle. The laboring person may only hear that they’ve only progressed one centimeter in 3 hours of labor but may over look the fact they they gone from 30% to 60%

effacement. Fellow doulas we must interpret what’s happening during labor so that our clients do not become discouraged and give up and start reverting to surgical matters or a necessary medication’s.

Here are some of my coaching tools to share with you.
