Episode #197: This week on the podcast I am joined by Shandelle Ferguson. Shandelle is a wife and mom to 3 children. She is also a birth and postpartum doula as well as a lactation counselor. Shandelle's goal is to provide compassionate support to families, where they are in life. She provides evidence-based information and helps birthing people and families make informed choices for all aspects of pregnancy, labour, postpartum and feeding.

 

On this episode we talk about the benefits of having a doula, creating birth plans and what to consider when making one, and 3 things you can do to create a healthy pregnancy and labour experience. We also discuss tips for new moms and bonging with baby, navigating postpartum, and so much more!
