Sometime, by the end of her last trimester, she started to question herself about the birthing of this coming baby.
After her first C-section, the doctor made it very clear, her next babies will be born in the same way and somehow she accepted that idea.
When she was pregnant with her second baby she had no questions, no doubts, just a certain and sharp schedule C-section…..
But this time, this third pregnancy, something was different; she started to feel from within, without any explicit reason, that she wants this baby to be born in a natural way.
That knowledge, that idea, happened very subtly. It just was there. She knew she is able to birth her third baby vaginally. It didn’t matter what friends, family and of course her doctor thought about that crazy, unthinkable idea. In the most private, visceral part of herself she embraced the truth. Three days before her scheduled C-Section I got her first call. We never met before but she needed to hear from someone that her idea is not so crazy. After introducing herself she asked me one simple question, “Do you think I can give birth vaginally after two C-Sections?" My immediate answer was, “I have no doubts!" But then I heard the entire story….. Her first baby is 3 years old and her second baby is 16 months and she is giving birth in the hospital with a doctor known as a "C-section fan". I asked myself, is she going against all odds???
I got her second call three days after ditching her scheduled C-Section. Her voice was clear, confident and determinant….. "Are you available to be my doula? I’m having contractions every few minutes".
As many other times I felt the energy and conviction coming from a laboring woman, that amazing and powerful understanding of how things must been done. I also felt her need and desire to have me as her doula, guiding her, supporting her, holding her hand and reminding her that she is doing a beautiful journey. Through this enchanted dance, we connected and no words were needed to be said, explained or implied. Her body was doing a marvelous performance and she allowed herself to follow her instincts and her sensations.
In a very calm and supportive environment she was surrounded by skeptical but well intentioned nurses, a doubtful but open minded OB ready to give this amazing woman the chance of a beautiful vaginal birth, a totally committed husband eager to back up and reinforce his wife, a compassionate mother caring for her daughter, and myself, her doula, as trusting and confident as I had ever been. And then it happened. She had her baby in the way she and nature intended from the beginning.
And I found the answer to my question. She didn’t go against all odds; she went consistent and reconciled with her beliefs and feelings, just as a mother should.

Since the moment we were little girls we heard about the beauty of birth. Sometimes, we were present in the birth of our little brother, our little cousin, helping, or just being there. When we became pregnant we knew everything about our bodies and nature’s intentions. We knew from within the power of nature.
But then, something changed; our inner power was taken away from us. Somebody told us we are not able any more. Somebody said, this is a medical emergency event.
We were separated from our women. Our body no longer knew how to birth, when to birth, and with whom to birth. We were taken to the doctor, to the hospital. They isolated us to cold rooms, where every half an hour some nurse came to watch the monitor, to check the Petocin poll or our blood pressure. They started to avoid our eyes, our body language, and our knowledge about ourselves.
We became an event, no longer a birthing mother.
And they convinced us that we had a new memory. We started to become afraid, to feel incapable, and to look for salvation. We began to desperately seek someone who will be able to take the pain away, somebody who will make things go faster- because nature, wasn’t working anymore.
The truth is the physiology of birth never changed; it has always remained the same. What changed was the birth management.
Women always needed emotional support through childbirth and until the early 20th century they were supported and cared for by other women. When birth moved into the hospital women lost that support. Birth became increasingly technological, complicated, and frightening.
Something needs to be done! Somehow we need to retrieve our confidence and faith in nature. We need to regain trust in ourselves.
Each woman is a whole world. Each birth is a new world. Each experience is unique, exceptional, and extraordinary.
We are here to remind you what you already know deep inside, what is innate to you. We are here to take the place of those mothers, grandmothers, and neighbors. We are here to give you back the power that belongs to you.
As caring doulas we will be in constant, close proximity to you at all times. We will provide comfort with many different modalities, such as breathing techniques, relaxation techniques, and other comfort measures. We’ll act as an advocate for you, encouraging you in your desires for your birth. Our goal as doulas and childbirth educators is to help you have a positive and safe birth experience, whether you want an un-medicated birth, or a medicated one.
We will bring our personal and professional experience to guide and assist you in creating the best environment and conditions for the birth of your baby.
We will be there for you, caressing and indulging you with empathy and compassion.
