Happy Month of May

The month of May is filled with so many special days and times for celebration.  May is Springtime, which is a time for rebirth and renewal.  It was announced yesterday that Journey Doula Services is happy to honor May as Pregnancy Awareness month.  Let us all celebrate the new life and creation that takes place every day around us.  I love to see the flowers in bloom the same way a new mother glows expectanly and blossoms with a new baby on the way.

I also just found out that May is International Doula Month.  This celebration is a worldwide commemorative time for doulas.  As a doula in training, this makes me very happy.  If you had a doula, this would be a great month to give her a call, an email, or a card.  Don’t forget to include a recent photo of your child(ren)!  Be sure to spread the word about doulas and refer others to a doula you know!


Other causes for celebration in May include the following:
May 5, 2011- International Day of the Midwife
May 8, 2011- Mother's Day
May 12, 2011- International Nursing Day
May 15, 2011- National Day of Families
May 28, 2011- National Multiple Births Awareness Day
