Marslady - wondered if you could help me!

I am planning a VBAC at the Whittington and the more reading up I do about VBACs the more convinced I am that having a doula would really help me. DS2 is due 21 Feb and I am worried that I have left it too late to find someone. From reading a couple of recent childbirth threads I have realised that you are a doula and have had 4 children at the Whittington, any chance that you might be free around 21 Feb? Or might you know another doula who could help? Could I CAT you to find out more?

I'm sure marslady will pick this up - however i am a doula, and although im not free then (have a client due 28/02) if mars doesnt pick this up i can post it on our doula uk forum. You'll need to find someone pretty quick. If you want me to help mail me [email protected]

Thank you very much lovely doula ladies, you all sound so nice I am even more desparate to find a doula and really wish that I hadn't left it so late! Have sent you an email hertsnessex - if you could post something on your doula uk forum that would be great.

Lulumama, have read your very helpful comments on previous VBAC threads and will send you an email - any advice would be very gratefully received!

Hi, mars does have a website, but she hasnt been posting the address on here, if you want to email me on [email protected] I'll pass it on to you, and her mobile no is on there so you'll be able to contact her.

sorry for hijacking:

I am also planning a VBAC. Lulu, I would love to email you to discuss things too if you don't mind?


Re doulas: I contacted pupuce, who is also a doula she knows quite a few others personally. They are few and far between oop north, and although I haven't spoken to anyone yet, I think the time is right for me to do so now.
