hi girls!

Typing one handed so sorry for the spelling etc!

I had my 6 week check up yesterday and what an awesome appt it was!! I have actually posted a woohoo for Dr D but will paste it in here too, as I am so stoked!

I am so excited, elated and on top of the world after having my 6 week appt with my OB.

After I fell pregnant with DS3 I began training as a Doula, and early in the pregnancy told my OB about my studies and his intial reaction was " oh yeah"

Well over the course of my pregnancy we spoke more about what a doula does, the benefits etc and that I was having a Doula myself. We also share a couple of clients, the first of which is due and I am really excited about working as a Doula with him as the Ob.

Anyway, today, at my check up he had a med student in with him, and I had the best appt out! Not only did he tell me how great I was looking - I am feeling on top of the world still from Angus' birth and that I was shrinking - yep clothes aren't fitting - too big, but he proceeded to go into detail with the med student why Doulas are so beneficial, such a good option for women and why I make a good Doula!!!

I sat there and listened to my OB tell her that the continuity of care from a Doula, the rapport the Doula builds with her clients, the information a Doula provides and the personal experience a Doula takes to a pregnant woman are extrememly beneficial!!

So I actually got the guts up to give him some business cards, and ask him to give them to any clients he has that is interested in having a Doula!

My OB Rocks!!!

how cool is that!!!! not to mention a few other forward thinking things he is looking into doing!!!
