Certified Birth Doula
Certified Postpartum Doula

“New mothers need more than just self-help books, free meals, and less tasks to do. Postpartum mothers need a village - a community of friends, family, and perhaps a postpartum doula, who come together to give her support in a way that fits her needs while using their respective gifts, allowing her voice to be heard.”
Mama, never forget that you were chosen for such a time as this. You were personally hand-picked by God to be the mother of your precious miracle. Whether you are a first-time mom or not, prenatal or postpartum, you are special, you are cared for, and you are loved.
I’m so glad I had the opportunity to read this book. I pray I can guide mamas in their time of need and do as the Lord has chosen me for.
I am officially Postpartum Doula certified with MamaDoula!!! Moms, I want to serve you and do whatever I can for you in your fourth trimester. You deserve to be loved and cared for! ❤️❤️
Amazing first start of 2023!
I can't wait to see what God has instore for the rest of this year.
Merry Christmas to you and yours this holiday season! You were created to love and be loved. You are amazing. Thank you, Jesus, for coming as a baby long ago. Always remember the true reason we celebrate today! ❤️
This. Full of love and joy. Mama, you ARE in control of your labor. ❤️
❤️ Love at first sight ❤️
This is a beautiful example of oxytocin at work 😍
The hormone oxytocin, known as the love hormone, is at its highest just after the birth. This facilitates bonding (amongst other things).
Just look at how this baby is looking into the eyes of his mother - this is also due to a calm unmedicated birth, so that the process is not inhibited in any way.
Be educated. Be informed. Be in control

Hi, everyone! My name is Abby Medford, and I am a Certified Doula offering Birth, Postpartum, and Lactation services! I am a graduate of Lee University with a Bachelors in Health Science, and I have a deep desire to serve moms in the greater Chattanooga area! ❤️
I have always had a love for women’s health and babies, even as a child, as I would naturally gravitate towards adorable little ones and expecting moms.
In 2019, I spent six months serving as a medical missionary in Honduras at The Jungle Hospital. During that time, I was able to assist in a few births, but during one birth in particular, I was assigned to be with mom, which meant I was to walk with her around the hospital, keep track of when she had contractions and how long they lasted, and be a shoulder to lean on if she needed a break. Our doctor said to me, “Abby, you’d be an amazing doula one day,” but at that moment, those words really didn’t have any significance to me. However, two years later, I began learning what they meant and decided to pursue certification. What a joy it has been!
As I walk this journey that the Lord has placed before me, I hope to love on and serve each mom, her support system, and new little one as much as I can. From pregnancy, to birth and postpartum, I am here to care for mom and beyond!
