A Different World & Labor

Where are all my “A Different World” fans at? Come closer and let me tell you a secret for how to help with your labor!

So y’all know I can watch A Different World over and over?

Well, apparently, it comes in handy during birth!

If you’re a fan, do you remember the episode where Debbie Allen, as the therapist, told Whitley to “relax, relate and release?”

Well, that can actually be a helpful reminder during labor if you find yourself tensing up during contractions:

• Relax your body.

• Relate to what’s happening.

• Release the tension.

Sometimes my doula support is simply finding something familiar that helps you through the next contraction.

And yes y’all, A Different World is actually part of my birth-support toolbox.
