Join us this Wednesday, June 23rd at 7:30 PM EDT with @jacobibclc for our first class on Inducing Lactation!
Jacob Engelsman, Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) & Postpartum Doula, specializes in helping non-gestational parents who want to induce lactation as well as queer, trans, and non-binary parents who have given birth & need support in lactation. His class is great for families interested in inducing lactation + professionals, alike! Click the link in our bio to register ⤴️

He is perfect guys 🙂 Orion was born at 8:26am 8lbs 3oz 9/2 19.5 inches long. He nursed with both his mommies like a champ. 💕 We appreciate all your love support and loving words. We thank you so much for being part of this ride with us.

Remembering a past #doulatraining on this #fathers

Remembering a past #doulatraining on this #fathersday when a #dadtobe came to #birthdaypresence to train as a #doula so he could learn as much as possible to support his partner through labor ❤️Whatever your circumstance, our #doula training will inspire you and prepare you to support and advocate for #birthingpeople. This #birthdoulatraining created by the inspiring, expert doula instructor @debrapascalibonaro and including maternal health advocate and founder of @theirthapp @iamksealsallers on #antiracism and #communtiydoula and birth and lactation expert @amadomabediako on Community Doula work will connect you to a community like no other and will teach you so much about this amazing and profound process of #pregnancy, #birth and #postpartum. The next training has 1 space left if you want to train in -person! Or join us virtually! BIPOC partial scholarships available. End of June. Www.birthdaypresence.com/providers/birth-doula-training

Shown here the instructor demonstrates the “lapsquat” position for #secondstage or pushing which is a great position to try if the birthing parent wants the benefit of the squat but their legs are too tired…this creates intimacy (they can sit on their partners lap or their doula) and the base person can spread their legs wider so the laboring person can achieve a deeper “squat.” The #doulatobe on the floor pretends to be the #midwife who is positioned to “catch the baby”.

“Happy Juneteenth! Yesterday, President Joe Biden signed a bill establishing June 19th as a federal holiday! Though this is a step towards acknowledging the many injustices against Black people in this country, there is still much work to be done. The legacy of slavery is still strongly reflected in today’s Black maternal and infant mortality crisis. This is why today we want to remember the many Black lives lost during birth and we honor the Black people and Black led-organizations working to decolonize birth and free it from the harms of racism. 🖤✨”

Happy Black Babywearing Week (June 13-19, 2021) ❣️ @blackbabywearingweek is celebrated each June in order “to uplift and inspire Black babywearers and to unify our community of Black educators, bloggers and Black-owned babywearing companies. We are here to make babywearing carriers, options, and education available and accessible to all Black caregivers. We are here to bring light to our history and embrace the future of Black babywearing.”
•
This week is especially important because babywearing has been white-washed in the media and by brands; so we honor Black babywearers in the booberhood and around the world who have always maintained the legacy of the African/African diasporic traditions of babywearing.
•
If you want to share your babywearing pics or videos, please feel free to tag or DM us! 💛💛

We made the @nytimes @nytmag crossword puzzle!! #doula is the answer to the clue birth day presence ❤️❤️❤️. Thx for the recognition! When I landed at that name I knew we had something because a doula is all about continuous support and presence on your birth day, as we like to say. You deserve to have a person by your side, throughout the entire experience. @birthdaypresence has been training #doulas and helping people find their doula since 2002! (Finding your doula is now available at sister co @getboober). Want to become a doula? Next #doulatraining is end of June. Link in bio.
