We are Waking Up!

So, long time, no post. The good news is- it means we are busy! I have been keeping seriously busy with midwifery and doula work! Corina has been doing some births and is getting her feet wet in postpartum work, and Sarafina is being a doula, taking classes for nursing prerequisites and working at Harvard. AND, we are spending some major time working on Creative Birth Doulas, investing our time and energy into this amazing work we all do together.



On May 5th, we made our Creative Birth debut at Wake Up the Earth in JP where we shared a table with Mischa's Wild Carrot Herbs. It was a great day spent outside in the sun telling people about what a doula is and convincing them to become pregnant and hire us immediately :) Here we are (Corina, Manny and myself) at Wake Up the Earth:

We have been meeting every two weeks to keep up the energy. In the works:

Gina is hosting Fertility Awareness Support Groups monthly in Central Square.

CBD is potentially having a birth movie screening night for all the birth junkies or interested folks to come, see births happen on the big screen, and talk about it afterwards.

Corina is hoping to get some birth art into open studios in JP, or perhaps have an open studio time of our own where we can get any crafty people together to make art celebrating women's bodies, babies and birth.

Sara and Gina are going strong in their birth-related trainings/schooling. Eventually, we will be offering childbirth education classes and/or consultations for holistically, left-leaning, thinking women of all backgrounds!

And, this is just the beginning of so much!!! I will have to keep posted with more as it arises...There will be plenty to share.
