It takes a while to get to a place where you can passively listen to someone talk about birth and NOT feel the overwhelming urge to talk about your own... :) I think it was after the 3rd or 4th birth that I got a hold of myself, lol!! :) The fact that you are able to recognize this aspect of yourself is AMAZING!!! Some people never see that or figure out that it could be offensive or off putting.

Anyone who decides that you are the Doula for them has made a very wise decision... :D

Aw, you sweet thing! Thank you so very much!

I hope you're not just saying that because I'm pimping you. ;P

Not in the least :) I have been witness to your constant quest for infomation. You have never stopped expressing your desire to learn, and examine yourself as a Doula. Something not every one can say about themselves.

Oh, wow. That made me feel so good. Thank you so much! *hugs*
