[ When You Are In Labor / After the Birth ]

When You Are In Labor...

• Call me when you think you are in labor or as soon as your bag of waters has released, even if you do not yet need me.
• Together we will decide if I should join you right away or wait for further change. We will at least check in every few hours.
• I will usually be with you within one hour from the time you ask me to come.
• I will also answer questions and make suggestions over the phone, should you desire.
• We will meet at a pre-arranged location, usually at your home or the birthing place.
• I will remain with you continuously, providing support and assistance throughout labor and birth.
• I recommend a variety of labor coping skills and labor management techniques to assist you through the birthing process.
