What's in My Labor Bag? Doula Essentials for Birth | Sarah Lavonne

[@ashleymarie6585]

Girl I’ve been binge watching your videos ever since I found out I’m expecting

[@graciegirl7556]

Ashley Marie I’ve been doing the same

[@jocelynpetersen984]

Good luck! It's fun but crazy. I hope you have a wonderful experience!

[@Mggrande998]

Me too!

[@jesussaves8929]

Lol me too! We are due any day now with our third and I love watching these videos!

[@salinabaksh2351]

Same here...I'm 38 weeks this week

[@dangerjaxvoilet666]

You should do a video of what you recommend moms put in the labor bag!

[@colettehenderson6108]

Yeeeeeesssssss

[@GardEmma]

Yes please!

[@MissFitDaniNicole]

Please!!??

[@MarlyT26]

Yes definitely

[@jessiekimbrough311]

I am currently 31 weeks pregnant and just discovered your videos yesterday. GIRL. You have already eased so many fears that I had because you explain things so well. I have been binge watching since yesterday. I wasn’t even 1/3 of the way into the first one I seen and you best believe I slammed that subscribe button. Thank you for everything you do! Too bad I can’t take you along with me personally during my labor and delivery!

[@jessicaglendinning8046]

I am also a doula...about essential oils...make sure a mom in labor smells the oils in the bottle during labor before using them! I’ve had moms bring oils they intended on using and then in the heat of labor the scent made them nauseated! Ladies...you never know what you’ll want/need in labor!

[@sarahlavonne]

Jessica Glendinning you're so right!! I literally said that and edited it out lol bc this video is so stinking long

[@StoryTimeWithJune]

The salt lamp in the baby nursery is a GENUIS idea, im definetly putting that on my baby shower registry!

[@maryproctor700]

Really enjoying your videos, the one thing i know about essential oils is that peppermint is not good for nursing so i don’t use it from the third trimester until I am ready to wean my Baby. Peppermint is GREAT for stopping the milk flow when ready to be done. Ginger is still GREAT for nausea. Clove, frankincense, Black pepper, a drop or two of birch or wintergreen all for pain and to keep contractions going myrrh and clary sage. Thank you for all the great ideas! It is much appreciated! 🥰

[@DeziVlogs]

How do you not have three times as many subscribers?? I can't stop watching your videos! Such great info!

[@ashleymendez8446]

That's so cool that you can totally set the mood to your room like that! You have ALL the best tricks!!!!...especially those essential oils!

[@keishabromell8968]

thank you so much for this video! I am due in 5 weeks and this is so helpful to finish buy labor bag, mainly for things for my husband to do, we are not having a doula, just the 2 of us, but these are great ideas!

[@MamaInSurvivalMode]

Your excitement that the salt lamp has a dimmer made me so happy because it’s the little things and I get excited about them just like that as well

[@ChrisplussTina96]

A salt lamp is a great idea! I didn't think of that but I'm def gonna bring mine!

[@CaudillW]

I wish I could've had you as a doula!!

[@sarahlavonne]

Whitney C I wish I could have been your doula!

[@alexischildress7976]

I'm sure May 2022 and just want to go her to be serviced by her

[@user-wy3dk4wh3k]

Hi Sarah! Tomorrow’s my due date with my first baby and I’m watching all of your videos trying to prepare and stay positive for my natural birth, Thank you for sharing tips and tricks ❤️

[@JannaCookie]

I skipped over this video SO many times!!! When I finally watched it I added about 20 things to my amazon cart!! 😂😂😂 Such good recommendations!!

[@mrs.w5539]

That salt lamp reminds me of of my children's moon ball night light. It has a yellow, blue and white setting. It sits on a nice pedestal and its chargeable. It's very light. It may work in addition to, or as an alternative salt lamp

[@shelbylynch6473]

I have to tell you that i love how "real" you are!! This is my third video now and you are awesome!!!

[@stilleve757]

You were awesome to listen to. I am getting ideas of what to bring with me to help my daughter with her birth

[@maiynnai]

I'm due with my second in 6 1/2-ish weeks, but my first was a scheduled csection and I didn't labour - so I feel like a first time, lol! Anyway, we don't have a doula but I updated my hospital bag with so much stuff after this video! I didn't even think to bring my salt lamp, what a great idea. Thank you!!!

[@michaellahamel9733]

Hey girl, I am due any day now and I have been loving your videos. Thank you for sharing this knowledge and great advice. You’re wonderful!!!

[@stellashepherd844]

I don’t mean to be shallow but....your hair looks fantastic! Great cut color and style. Now for my usual..thank you once again for your informative and entertaining video. You are wonderful. Don’t worry about slowing down..take your time.

[@sarahlavonne]

haha not shallow at all!! thank you!! GIRL I'm such a rambler that if I didn't move they'd be an hour of me gabbing about all sorts of random things. :) Thank you so much for watching!

[@haleigholiver1195]

Hey girl! I love your videos, been thinking about becoming a doula for a long time, would love a video on why you chose this life and what it takes to be one! 😄 thanks for all this amazing content!

[@AnnieRotko1]

Pregnant with out first and am due in April. I never would have thought to set the mood in the hospital room!

[@gloriaalosio4229]

We're pregnant with our first and due in April too! I love the mood lighting idea also. I have one of those salt rock things that I'm going to bring. Good luck to you and your new family, mama!

[@Kenisgae]

Saaaame April 22nd

[@SupergirlLoisLane17]

My mom makes cherry pit bags! We heat them up or put them in the freezer, they are so nice

[@stacykhernandez]

Just found your channel. Absolutely love your energy! Thank you so much for the tips for my doula bag!

[@kayleematthews1016]

Please do a video solely on episiotomies!

[@breannakelley3171]

I’m a DoTERRA wellness advocate!! I LOVE my oils & I agree I love balance as well. Lavender and wild orange together are my favorite diffuser mixture.

[@hopeherren5044]

I've been watching all of your videos. I smelled Balance and Serenity and I had to get it for my labor day! I'm excited to see you use it too!

[@Addicted2Muzic94]

This is amazing and gave me so many ideas for my labor coming in August! Thank you! 😍😍😍

[@ZxBadWolf]

Thank you so much. Your videos have been giving me peace of mind for this third pregnancy. I’ve just ordered the salt lamp and preggy pouch 💕

[@msbling9]

New subbie here🙋🏽‍♀️❣...you make labour feel like something I can do...ps:not pregnant(yet, I think) but preparing early. Lol

[@LaVenderlocx]

[@rebeccacaldwell346]

I bought the lamp after watching this 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️ I never do that hahah BUT I need a nursing light 😜

[@sarahlavonne]

Rebecca Caldwell yaaaaasssss I hope you used the promo code!

[@annabelmiller8]

Those hair massagers shut my kids down. Lol. Seriously I'll put it on their head and they collapse to the floor in giggle fits. Lol. Its hilarious. I LOVE them. My husband hates them. I would like to try the essential oils this time around.

[@awallacedoula]

Did you ever do a video about essential oils?

[@raynamoreno1]

I am not pregnant but in the next couple years we plan on it. I am so sad you are not in San Diego! I would love someone like you to help me on my first baby!

[@sarahlavonne]

Rayna Moreno yay!!! It'll come before you know it! Girl I totally still can help you!! Check out my birth coaching package on my website is the best resource out there!

[@faizarichards63]

Amazing cherry pit bag 🤗

[@dana2854]

Your videos are so helpful!!

[@franciscruz7389]

@SarahLavonne Is there any other cheaper grounding essential oil you can recommend? This is my first child & I have been trying to prep as much as possible but I'm not able to afford certain things or a doula.

[@vernasnails]

What do you think about taking nurse gifts with your birth plan attached to it? And what would be some good things to put in it?

[@sarahlavonne]

vernasnails Starbucks card!!!

[@kaylamcmahon8648]

I can't tell how important oils are for me because I simply can't imagine having a birth without them. The deep blue is going to be my go to when i am having intense contractions. My husband is very good with the oils and I will be making a plan with him to use them on me as i will be so freaking exhausted.

[@jewelsgrl]

I’m due now with #4 and thank you so much for your videos! Also that head massage lol...I felt I was intruding watching! Hahaha Would you consider covering “special circumstances?” I know that’s a broad topic.

[@sarahlavonne]

Julie Martin haha right I def had a moment there lol yes!! What special circumstances would you like? I have a warning signs video in the works...

[@simonejeanette7066]

Please do a video on how to become a doula. I'm 21 weeks pregnant with my first 😊

[@morganelaforet6687]

Best vidéo ever thank you so much !!

[@kelisharichardson8900]

Was just wondering where's the video....then I get the notification.

[@sarahlavonne]

Camilliea Boo haha literally just posted!! It's 3:22 am here 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

[@kelisharichardson8900]

@@sarahlavonne 7:25 am here Eastern time

[@5mamajones]

Is that a Cornerstone University water bottle? :)

[@oyannamuta]

Try EMU OIL for massage during labor. Works wonders

[@thefrontierfamily3495]

Honey sticks and Gatorade SAVED me in my last 2 births. You wouldn't run a marathon on an empty stomach, birth is no different. My first was in a hospital and it took a 3 day induction to get her out. I was SO hungry after not eating for 3 days, when she was born I didn't even want to hold her, I just wanted a hamburger STAT!

[@sarahlavonne]

LOL!!!

[@stoici88]

I need you 😂🤰🏻 You’re on to it!

[@caitlinleigh7954]

Literally love u!!! Hilarious!!!

[@shakeelrafique1561]

Wonderful info

[@jenniferrosenberry7662]

I love this!!

[@katelynzisa7371]

I’ve literally watched all of your videos, I wish you could be my dula/delivery coach ❤️

[@sarahlavonne]

Katelyn Zisa I can be! Check out birth coaching!!

[@LayAnn]

Doterra oils are ingestable. You are incorrect about that. I am a huge user of them and love that they are ingestable. They do not recommend huge amounts to ingest. But less than 20 drops is ok.

[@angelanabors7214]

Most Doterra oils are ingestible, yes! BUT some, like Balance or Serenity, are not and should only be diffused or used topically! :)

[@Karroissad]

Kinda want you when I give birth. (When ever that is in the future) but I live in Sweden :c

[@kaylamcmahon8648]

I love doTerra oils!!! But lately have found myself nauseated by the oils.

[@VincyMarak356]

I am 24 weeks pregnant currently and was scared to give birth but listening to you makes me less scared, wish you could be my doula but unfortunately i am in India.... Sad!!

[@emilyrose6006]

What is the liquid in the blue bottle called?

[@sarahlavonne]

it's my massage oil blend for labor :) trade secret :)

[@emilyrose6006]

Oh, I was actually talking about the one that has electrolytes and minerals. 😊thanks!!

[@sarahlavonne]

Emily Rose oh!!! Haha it's concentrace minerals 🤣

[@emilyrose6006]

Perfect!! Thanks 😊

[@Nika.1922]

Id watch out for DoTerra! They're a pyramid scheme and theyre shady.

[@sarahlavonne]

Nika haha girl I get it!! I legit make pennies off the sales i only have an account to make the best oils available to my clients- def not the best business opportunity. They are my fav and the purest oils tho!

[@kutie1016]

I was so into the video but as soon as I heard doterra I rolled my eyes lol I love her informative videos just not the mlms 🤣

[@TaraBreanneT]

Pyramid schemes are illegal. MLM businesses aren't pyramid schemes because they are legal. Just wanted to clarify. But yea not the easiest way to have a business and some people get wayyyy too pushy with recruiting.

[@pippetandpossum]

Tara Taylor Semantics. They definitely are pyramid schemes and they get around that by calling themselves mlms. They are not ethical and don’t care about their slaves oh whoops I mean distributors.

[@ashleyarneson8328]

Love this video and your hair!!! you must've cut like 6 inches off!

[@CuttlefishAlice]

I am sorta surprised to hear that you use an EO that contains tansy...an herbal abortifacient. But maybe it makes sense? If it stimulates contractions? I'm not an herbalist, obvs.

[@sarahlavonne]

It's actually blue tansy not tansy- also known as moroccan blue chamomile and safe for pregnancy. it shouldn't stimulate contractions :)

[@moonbeamrunes]

I use balance ALL. ThE. TIME! LOL

[@shelbiee-97]

Which city are you located in ?!

[@sarahlavonne]

Shelbie Wilson Los Angeles but I have services available to anyone anywhere!

[@shelbiee-97]

Sarah Lavonne do you have a website or anything :)❤️

[@sarahlavonne]

Girl so sorry I just saw this! It's in the description box! 💖

[@shelbiee-97]

Sarah Lavonne that’s not a problem :) no worries ! Thankyou for the reply !

[@brittnaybradshaw1678]

What's a dula???

[@sarahlavonne]

Brittnay Bradshaw a paid hired labor support person 😆 I see a video coming on that one

[@Heyimvalarie18]

Peppermint and orange/citrus was what helped my intense nausea during my first and half of second trimesters :)

[@MissFitDaniNicole]

I just freakin love you

I wish you were closer to Loma Linda!
