Birth Works Classes & my thoughts on Doulas

[Anonymous]

I just wanted to give a big shout out to Birth Works! We hired a doula for our baby's birth (which was wonderful) and because we weren't able to get into a childbirth class before our due date, our doula taught us privately. She teaches Birth Works and I believe she has a class coming up in if there are any interested. (Her email address is [e-mail].) Anyway, birth works is very holistic and focuses on trusting your body, in addition to all the normal birth ed stuff. Anyway, a big public thank you to Corinne Hilton in northern Virginia! Thank you for helping us have the birth we desired and supporting us each step of the way.

p.s. if anyone is even considering hiring a doula- DO IT! Or at least look into it and interview a couple women- you won't regret it. Like a couple of other women have posted- you can always find doulas in training that are free or not charging much at all.
