Wichita Doula's 2016 Birth Statistics
As we come to the close of 2016 and reflect on all the things that have happened throughout the year, we can't help but be incredibly proud and grateful for the many families we were able to serve as they learned the ropes of this whole parenting thing.
Some of them breastfed their babies. Some of them bottle fed their babies. Some of them gave birth at home. Some of them gave birth via Cesarean section.
We don't keep track of that stuff.
To us, you're not a number or a statistic. You're not our "record" of a certain type of birth to brag about. All births are transformative events deserving of recognition, and we believe thatevery family is worthy of our 100% dedication, support, yes - and love!
So here are our official Wichita Doula statistics for 2016:
100% births attended with a smile and a calming, gentle presence.
100% babies rocked and patted on their little bottoms to sleep.
100% eyes all watery when a new baby takes that first breath.
100% healthy food prepared to nourish tired new parents.
100% encouraging words spoken when things got tough.
100% phone calls answered in the middle of the night.
100% safe and legal preparation of placenta capsules.
100% new families instilled with the confidence to bloom beautifully.
