http://www.orgasmicbirth.com/This is a great video. It seems a little strange to me, I don't doubt that some people find labor pleasurable, however I know it hurts. The first few bits of this 80+ minute video are the only true "orgasm" like instances. The rest of it is just amazing. I highly recommend it to any pregnant mama!
I've recently been reading a few things about vaccines and here is an article of interest:Controversyand another ARTICLE about user friendly vaccines scheduling.Dr. Miller recommends: No vaccinations until a child is two years old.No vaccines that contain thimerosal (mercury).No live virus vaccines (except
I've decided to start putting up more articles and things that I come across. We've had a busy year here with James getting out of the Navy. He's almost a full fledged police officer now so it's been good times. I've been teaching childbirth classes and doula-ing and couldn't not share info with you guys any longer. Please feel free to email me any info or writings that you may have and I

Usually doulas do not do what the doula in the picture is doing. That's sorta outside of the doula's scope of practice.
UGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. there was an AWESOME article in the newest Mothering magazine(March-April 2008) by Ina May Gaskin about our botched death certificate writing, statisticians for maternal death.

While there this is what I got:(we did have her fully vaccinated when she was little due to lack of knowledge.)Doctor: "We are now giving them chicken pox boosters."Me: "You know we researched the chicken pox vaccine and

At first I was hesitant to be politically minded here. However, I can no longer NOT be. This is important.

If you read the caption under the picture, it says, "The title character on Eli Stone successfully argues in court that a vaccine containing mercury causes autism. " Actually he argued that a preservative not mercury, in the vaccine possibly caused her son to become autistic. It was a great show. I would recommend watching it even if it wasn't a true story.

Happy Holidays to my beloved Listeners! I hope this holiday season has been treating you well. Ours got off to a rocky start but is slowly becoming a little more healthy. We started the night before Thanksgiving with the stomach flu. This morphed into a sinus trouble. Everyone got better except for Malachi and me. Then Malachi had a week of 105 degree fevers. He came out of those last Monday and

Now she has some signs of cerebral palsy and has very low tone on her right side. Her mama and dad are trying to raise some money to get her
In this episode, Nadine and James talk about what a Doula is, what they do and why you should have one.
I like this quote: "Delivery between 37-41 weeks of pregnancy is considered normal. "I'd even go so far as to say 42 weeks is normal...considering the average first time mama goes into labor at 41 weeks and 1 day.
Our next episode will be recorded probably Sunday afternoon. If you can call before this time and tell us about your doula, you can be on the show!Call us at 904-875-4001 and leave a message!Thanks for listening!
