Why You Need a Doula


Doulas provide non medical pain management options for laboring parents, support and advocacy for your choices, and helps your partner cope while you are in labor.


A doula will help you make a list of your birth plan/preferences, and assist you during the birth of things don't go as planned. For example, in the case of an emergency c section, a doula will help make sure your breastfeeding and skin to skin time still happens.


Think of a doula as your wedding day coordinator. You and baby are the star of the show, the coordinator keeps things running smoothly and makes sure you feel like a Queen. You will be able to relax and enjoy the birthing experience.


Doulas are also associated with shorter, easier labors, fewer c sections, and fewer unwanted interventions such as episiotomies or forcep deliveries.


You will have options, such as alternatives to pushing on your back, pain relief other than an epidural, which restricts you to bed, and someone to squeeze your hips during a contraction, to tell you that you are beautiful and amazing, and you are doing a great job.
