How Do I Know What I Know?
by Teresa Howard
Experience is something that comes from many sources. I feel that I learn something from each birth I attend. I have personally given birth three times unmedicated. I think my experiences were good ones and I want that for others. I have breastfed all three of my children and was a La Leche League leader for many years. That too is an experience that I cherish and love helping new moms make this a good experience for them as well. Experience comes in many ways- personally having done something, training by other in techniques and being involved with someone else while they are doing it.

A few years ago I had the pleasure of being a part of a PBS special show about doulas. Here is the link you can view and enjoy!
Real Savvy Moms is the location of the video- I wish I could upload it but it won't upload here- so go to this link- click on watch videos on the left hand sidebar. Then click on pregnancy. Then in the section at the top in the middle- it says search by topic. Put in Doulas. Then click on Doulas. The segment has Penny Simkin in it as well as me!
It is the video we usually show at our teas. Hope you can figure this convoluted way of finding it to watch it. |
