I had the amazing opportunity to sibling doula a rambunctious, full of life little guy during the birth of his new sister. We camped out at the womens birth and wellness center and had the best of time! We built puzzles, made 'birth'day cards, ate a cake in celebration, played ball in the hall way, come in and checked on mom and sister multiple times during the labor, played outside, talked lots about sister and how she may look and the list just goes on and on. We truly had a blast and helped fill the gap of unawareness of birth, his mom and sister. Little guy just could not stay awake the last hour and missed the birth and first few hours of her life, but I am sure once he met her that roof could not hold the joy <3
As I was designated at the sibling doula I could not help but capture little bits as I could through out the labor.
The mom was supported by my beautiful sister doula Gabe from Sacredsong Birth and Wellness. The passion that this lady has for her work is remarkable.
