What is a Birth Doula:
- A birth doula is someone who mothers a mother by providing physical, emotional and informational support during pregnancy and labor.
- Recent studies have shown that when a birth is attended by a doula, a mother's labor is shorter, has less medical interventions, and has a smaller incidence of complications.
- Mothers with a doula have babies that are healthier and are more at ease when taking to the breast for feeding.
- A birth doula has an extensive knowledge of the physiology of birth and pregnancy and recognizes the emotional needs of a mother in labor.
