Whether at home or in a hospital, I will work with you to help you achieve your birth goals! My name is Elizabeth Meier, I have a Bachelors degree in Interdisciplinary Sciences from SLU, I have been married for 6 years to my husband Adam and we have three children. I have had one birth-center birth and 2 homebirths under the primary care of Midwives. I have breastfed for a total of 58 months betwe
en all three of my children - I know the ups and downs, tips and tricks, joys and sorrows of nursing. I am ready and willing to help you achieve your breastfeeding goals! I am familiar with the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM) and can help you understand this method to a greater extent for Trying to Conceive (TTC) as well as Trying to Avoid (TTA), or if you are just curious about how your body works! I have attended Bradley Method classes and successfully used the method with all of my children. I completed toLabor’s 26 hour doula training (2012). I am professionally trained to educate you about the many aspects of natural birth, to help you choose a primary care provider you can trust, to help you and your partner cope with the emotional and physical discomfort of birth and to support you during the postpartum period (the 4th trimester). I have attended 40+ hours of Midwifery training under the instruction of a 30 year veteran Midwife. (2013)
I have had more than 300 hours of active birth participation/assistance in multiple settings - birth center, hospital and home. I co-teach a 6 week Natural Childbirth Education class to couple's and single parents in groups and in private lessons. I have taken 14 hours of Rebozo training - a very useful labor tool! I'm a Young Living essential oil distributor and frequently use oils on my clients during their pregnancy and birth. I am also an active participant in the birth community – demonstrations, blogs, correspondence, meetings and networking! Feel free to ask me questions about anything!
