Blair Donohue Midwife in El Paso, TX
About Blair
Hi there. My name is Blair Naomi. I am a licensed midwife and trained birth and postpartum doula. I have worked in a variety of settings in a variety of birthworker roles including as a birth doula for adolescent mothers in Boston, as a postpartum doula in Los Angeles, as a volunteer childbirth educator, and as a licensed midwife in a busy free-standing birth center. I believe that every mother knows what is best for her body, for her birth, and for her baby. I love working with families to achieve happy, empowering birth and postpartum experiences. I look forward to meeting you.

Birth Doula
Birth doula care (38-42+ weeks) I offer two pre-birth visits, one postpartum support visit, and birth doula support starting at 38 weeks. The pre-birth visits are for getting to know one another, for exploring your birth options, for preparing a birth plan, and for engaging in individualized childbirth education. Starting at 38 weeks, I will be on call for your birth. I only take on one or two clients a month, all but guaranteeing that I will be able to accompany you during your birth. When your labor is underway and you feel ready for me to join, I can come to your home or I can meet you at the hospital. I will then support you in navigating your labor, coping with contractions, making informed decisions about your care, and advocating for yourself. If your partner or a family friend is also attending your birth, I can help them help you, getting them involved in hip-squeezes, back rubs, and other labor support methods. Two to three days after the birth, I offer one postpartum support visit to help establish breastfeeding (if applicable) and to debrief your birth.
