Austin,(Texas) —The Get Babied Doula Collective will have their entire staff of experienced doulas on-hand to offer massages to pregnant moms who will be shopping at the MamaCents consignment sale at Palmer Auditorium on September 17th.  Pregnant moms are invited to an exclusive VIP (Very Important Preggers) presale on Friday evening before the main sale starts on Saturday.

This is one sale where moms will not need to shop till they drop!  Moms are invited to take a break from the shopping madness to join the doulas at the Get Babied table for a free hand or foot massage. This is your chance to get pampered, part of what the Get Babied Doula Collective is all about.

The doulas from the collective will also be there to answer questions about what they do as doulas.  In short, a doula is a childbirth assistant that provides continuous emotional, physical, and informational support throughout labor and delivery, and helps with initial breastfeeding. The doulas at Get Babied also provide extensive prenatal assistance, pregnancy and postpartum massage, lactation consultation and many classes.  Highlights of a doula’s job include providing comfort measures for moms in active labor including massage, acupressure, heat compresses, and focused breath work. Doulas stay by the mother’s side throughout her labor. She is there to answer any questions the mother may have about medical procedures and to advocate for the birth the mother wants. The Get Babied ladies are all mamas themselves and are experts in pregnancy and childbirth.

The MamaCents consignment sale at the Palmer Auditorium begins September 17th and is the largest and most established consignment sale in central Texas.  Register online at www.mamacents.com in order to attend the exclusive presale.
