Happy birthday multi-colored candlesToday is the 3rd birthday of Radical Doula.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been three years already. I’ll be doing a few things today in honor of the bday, but let’s start it off some fun facts about Radical Doula:

    Just a quick note to say that while I didn’t know about your blog back then, March 5 2008, your site’s busiest day, is the day my son was born – in a fantastic, doula-assisted hospital birth. My doula made all the difference, and I’m so glad she was there. Thanks for your work advocating for doulas, and for reproductive justice.
