by Dezarae Weyburn I recently had an experience with my car that reminded me of the importance of talking to the right person for the job. My car had started overheating. Being the stubborn person that I am, I tried to deal with it myself at first. I bought more coolant and filled up the …

  • Do you use alternative milks? What is your favorite?
  • Reposted from @blackmamasmatter -- Inequities stemming from racist legacies of slavery (e.g. “the wet nurse”), sexism, and classism continue to impact Black Mamas breastfeeding/chestfeeding experiences. Disparities in breastfeeding deprive Black Mamas, their children, families, and communities from achieving optimal health outcomes. --- #BBW20 #ReviveRestoreReclaim #BlackMamasMatter
  • If your baby turns #breech at or near term, we have a bunch of tricks to help encourage them to turn. If that doesn't work, we talk about options. This recent client chose a beautiful cesarean birth for her little girl, and doula Dez got to attend (and snap some pictures for @thegatheringphotographer since only one person could be in the operating room!) Did you have a breech baby? How did you handle that? Photo credit of the birth goes to the amazing Bri Crosgrove, The Gathering Photographer. She is the magic behind that beautiful image! Y'all should follow her page. 😉 . #BreechBirth #VaginalBreech #CesareanBreech #CesareanBirth #CesareanWarrior
  • Did you know that we offer placenta encapsulation through @bloombirthutah with some of our birth packages? All the benefits of a doula plus the benefits of encapsulation for one price!

  • Last week I got to be a part of this incredible cesarean birth. Due to some very last second changes to their birth plan, @thegatheringphotographer wasn't able to be there with them but sent her camera in with me. This birth was not what this family had envisioned, but they had a supportive team and a beautiful birth! -Dez #cesareanBirth #cesareanBirthIsBirth #breechBaby #birthTeam #birthPhotographer #birthDoula #doulasForEveryBody #everyBodyCanBirth #newRhythmDoulas
  • Nuff said.
  • #BlackoutTuesday This week especially is not about our voices. We will be sharing about #BlackMamasMatter. Repost of @littlebirdbirthservices ——— I understand that I will never fully understand. #amplifymelanatedvoices
  • After some frustrating restrictions in local hospitals that left us feeling quite down in the dumps, things are starting to turn around! New Rhythm Doula @doula.dez got to photograph a beautiful birth with @mermaidmidwifedani! 😍 This family had an amazing team behind them and had such a beautiful birth! We always love working with other doulas, too! Shout out to @rachelwinsley who was the only one on this birth team that got through without sneaking a nap!
  • #Repost @avivaromm @download.ins #pregnancy #childbirth #postpartum #maternalmentalhealthmatters #postpartumdepression #postpartumanxiety #postpartumocd #mmhmatters #maternalmentalhealth ---- No woman should have to birth alone, yet the right to have support during labor and birth by a partner or doula is being stripped away in hospitals due to COVID-19 precautions. As if facing COVID-19 and social distancing wasn’t enough to worry about, this is causing pregnant women incredible anxiety - and even despair - at a time when they should be able to prepare to welcome their baby. While there is a lack of definitive evidence of increased infection risk from having a partner or doula present in labor or at birth, there is evidence of increased risk to the mother and baby from lack of adequate emotional, psychological, and physical support during labor, including longer and more painful labor, greater need for pain medication, interventions, and cesarean section. Further, lack of perinatal support is associated with greater risk of postpartum depression. These risks are further increased for people of color, who are already at higher risk of perinatal complications. Today I am launching the #Ideservebirthsupport campaign in order to raise awareness of a woman’s right to have support during her labor + birth experience and in turn, have hospitals recognize that labor and birth support is a proven, important factor in the health of mothers, babies, and thus, families. Your help is really needed. If you can, I would love your support. Here's how: 1. Post a photo that depicts your birth journey (pregnant, in labor, birthing, you and your baby after birth, etc.) and explain in the caption why having support during your labor and delivery was so integral to your health. 2. Use the hashtag #ideservebirthsupport and tag me @avivaromm 3. If you’re feeling the birth activist spirit, contact the COO of your hospital, anyone you know in media, your mayor, your governor, your state senator, and ask your OB or midwife to advocate for you. Explain why birth support is so essential for your wellbeing, and the health of your baby and family.
