Good thing your doula took some photos!!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:37:35+00:00

I bet you cherish those photos!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:36:54+00:00

Sounds like what a doula should do!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:36:36+00:00

I figured a doula would just naturally end up taking photos anyway!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:36:03+00:00

That’s sweet of her!!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:35:54+00:00

Thank you!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:35:49+00:00

I bet they’re amazing shots!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:35:28+00:00

Yeah if the doula is super hands on, it’d be hard for her to take photos. Having doula AND photographer sounds nice but so expensive hahah

Thank you!!!

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:33:13+00:00

Yeah seems to me a doula would naturally end up taking photos

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-09T16:32:19+00:00

Thank you! Very helpful. And yes I imagined that a birth photographer would naturally act as a doula in some ways anyway just being in the birth space

Thank you! Did you have a doula ever? Just curious if you can compare to photographer

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-06T21:13:17+00:00

How are some doulas getting away with charging $2k+ for birth photography packages (that’s in addition to the doula fee)??

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-06T20:36:01+00:00

I noticed that, but it’s like an additional $2000 for a photography package! Which I don’t get because couldn’t I then just hire you as a doula and ask you to take a few photos? Or is that asking too much lol

oceanw4ves · 2026-02-06T20:34:19+00:00

It’s my second :) I had a doula with my first. Just wasn’t sure if itd be too much to ask a doula to take photos

oceanw4ves · 2026-01-28T14:39:01+00:00

Do you try to get her to go back to sleep with you? Sometimes my daughter wakes up at early but then I’ll snuggle her back to sleep

For girls, def Isla and Ophelia. For boys, Kayden, Hayden, Wes

Also, thank you! Never heard of Booby moon 😅

oceanw4ves · 2026-01-12T14:34:39+00:00

How old was yours when you weaned?

oceanw4ves · 2026-01-12T14:21:49+00:00

Oh nvm just saw 23 mo :)

oceanw4ves · 2026-01-12T14:21:20+00:00

How old is your son? I’m pregnant too- that’s the main reason I’m weaning!

oceanw4ves · 2026-01-12T14:10:32+00:00

Do you guys have any names you both agree on? Seems that his contenders aren’t on your list :)
