Bloggin' it up/Doula Training

Just a quick note....I have started this blog to document my journey in being a woman, a wife, a mother and soon to be Doula! I will share my personal stories along the way (and others birth stories with permission) and the knowledge that I have found. I've been desiring to help women for a long time now, and most recently after receiving an email from a friend saying that I am her "go to woman" when it comes to all things baby...I figured why not. I'm on a journey and if you are reading this...welcome to what will be an unpredictable yet vulnerably real blog.

Exciting News: This coming weekend I'm going to be attending an official Doula training through DONA. After experiencing my first birth as a Doula in training I knew that my heart had found its calling. Not long before witnessing my first birth I had remembered longing to be a Pediatrician and to deliver babies when I was in high school. Granted my life has been through many valleys and mountaintops since then, it's so amazing to truly see my hearts desires come to pass. As I sit here in a messy house, with packing to do for our trip to my conference, cloth diapers to wash (the list could go on), I think it's a picture of how this blog will be...sometimes neat and tidy and other days a mess but a beautiful mess in any case.

Peace to your home,
Mama B.
