If you would like to contact the doula, please send a personal message to me, Sue Howley Rickman. I can't view messages that are written to this business page unless I use an actual computer. Silly Facebook for mobile.

A gentle reminder to all pregnant and nursing moms to protect yourselves and your babies in this extreme heat. Make your goal a GALLON of drinking water each day. Not kidding! Dehydration is a cause of preterm labor. Find shade, find air conditioning. Yes vitamin D is important; soak in some rays but take care to avoid sunburn. And breastmilk is all your exclusively breastfed baby needs ; water supplements are not necessary in most cases. You're the one who needs lots of drinking water!

Happy Mothers Day to all you beautiful, smart, hard-working moms. I admire each and every one of you for your uniqueness and dedication in mothering your sweet adorable children.

Still on maternity leave for labor doula services, but am offering prenatal and postpartum, breastfeeding support. I also offer pet sitting services, which would come in really handy for a mom on bed rest or for those first few weeks postpartum! Give me a call if you need help 256-320-8084

FB doesn't send me notifications when mothers post on this wall. I don't check this page but a couple times a week. So, please type my name (Sue Howley Rickman) in your post, if we're already friends, so I'm sure to see it. Or just text/call me on my phone, or send a FB message. THanks!
