The Story Behind Oxitocina PR
The birth of my first child was a beautiful moment, but what came after was unexpectedly difficult. I found myself struggling with postpartum depression (PPD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), feeling lost and overwhelmed. The treatment I received from my doctor left me feeling unsupported, and I didn’t know how to heal. I turned to natural remedies—therapy, acupuncture, and other holistic approaches—and while they didn’t offer an immediate cure, they played a key role in my healing process. Over time, I found the strength to reclaim my mental and emotional well-being.
During this challenging period, I realized I wanted to be part of a different kind of birth and postpartum experience, one that provided the support and care I had longed for. This realization led me to become a birth doula, so I could offer others the care and compassion I felt was missing in my own journey. After two years of working as a doula, I found out I was pregnant again. My greatest fear was experiencing PPD again, but I knew I had to do everything in my power to avoid it.
I decided to become certified as a placenta specialist, learning about the natural healing benefits of placenta encapsulation. It felt like a perfect fit for me—combining my passion for natural remedies with my desire to help other women. When my second birth came, a breech home birth, I was empowered by the decisions I made. I felt in control, and this time, I didn’t face PPD. Instead, I felt stronger, more balanced, and deeply connected to my body and my baby.
That experience became the turning point for me. I knew I had to help other women experience better, healthier postpartum journeys.
I transitioned into working full-time as a placenta specialist, and over this past year, I’ve had the honor of serving more than 60 families. Along the way, other doulas began asking how they could become certified in placenta encapsulation too. This led me to share my knowledge by training doulas, empowering them to offer this valuable service to their clients.
Now, I am the proud owner of Oxitocina PR, where I offer placenta encapsulation services, train doulas to become placenta specialists, and occasionally return to my roots as a birth doula. My journey has been one of healing, empowerment, and a passion for helping others. I’m grateful to support families through one of the most transformative experiences of their lives, helping them embrace a healthier, more empowered postpartum.
