I just interviewed two doulas (they are a team) and turns out i actually had met the one before, she was the instructor at my prenatal aquafit class! I was going to interview a bunch of midwives but I really feel like I like these ladies a lot. In particular the woman I had met before is so calming and confident from what i know of her, and she's really into the whole childbirth scene here. i'm assuming her partner is the same, she seemed really super nice too. They are around my age too, which for some reason I really like.

also I got the preg/nursing bras that i ordered and i'm sitting here comfortably in a 32E. THATS RIGHT E!!!!!!!!! w.t.f???!!! lol i'm totally in love with these bras, they are so comfy and i think that they have enough give that they will work awesome for nursing too. they are very supportive and beautiful! the only thing is if i get super gigantic then i will need to add a few extra hooks to the band but i'm totally cool with that.

WOWZA! E??

I love my stretchy nursing bras. I wear them to bed. My boobs feel huge and are all stretch marky, but i've only made it up to a B so far. But my band size has gone from 34 to 40!

Glad you found a good doula! I'm hoping my doula is albe to get me through to a natural delivery.

Glad you found a great doula team. I had a doula for Drakes birth and she was phenomenal (we have become good friends, her son is only 3 months older then Drake so we have playdates together) She is the reason I was able to go natural and I highly recommend doulas to everyone now. Youll have a fabulous birthing experience since they will be there for you every step of the way

What brand are those nursing bras? Im looking for some new ones as I hate the ones I own. Wow on Es! Even after being pregnant and nursing Im only a B

Yay for finding a team of doula's you feel comfy with. I found a team and one lived in my neighborhood. I didn't go with them because it was $500. Instead I did birthing classes (Bradely Method) for like $250-300. I should have skipped the classes because I knew everything and the relaxtion stuff didn't come in handy for me that much. It was fun though.

E? Does your husband like that? haha.. What was your size before getting pregnant? Do sizes work the same by you as in the US?

I had a doula for my labor and I was very glad for her presence for the most part! Definitely well worth the money!

And I went from a B to a D cup with pregnancy/nursing too!

Your boobs are officially bigger than mine! I hope I don't get bigger but so far I've been lucky. I'm sure it all will change and I'll join you in the E+ club sometime later.

And yay on finding a doula! I wish I could hire one but I don't think we could afford it.

hahahah my boobs arent really much bigger at all (you will see in my belly pics), i was in a 34C before and then i got sized properly. the bras i got are from new zealand (woot woot tash!), but i ordered them from the states and it was free shipping to canada.

I got this one: HOTmilk "Radiant In Her Rescue" Maternity/Nursing Bra Spring 2010
And this one: HOTmilk "Her Midnight Charm Was Striking" Maternity/ Nursing Bra Spring 2010

I'm excited for this doula thing, i forgot to mention the doulas assumed i was having a hospital birth and when i told them i wanted a home birth they both looked SO DELIGHTED, it was cute.

i can still fit uncomfortably into my C's, so i just think NZ sizes are smaller and i only needed a slightly bigger cup and smaller band...honestly they are only maybe a hair bigger than they were before. these nursing bras are great though because they fit now, but there's clearly room for my boobs to get bigger with nursing. they have alot of coverage but are nice and frilly so it a fair trade! hehe
