TO DOULA OR NOT TO DOULA?
Choosing whether or not to bring a Doula into your game plan can be an overwhelming decision.
“Do I need a Doula?”
“What is the Doula bringing to the table that my [insert other support team member(s)] cannot?”
“…….. What tf even is a Doula?”
A bit to contemplate — and all of which I would love to mull over with you. But let’s just start here: what if I told you that Doulas can provide services across the entire spectrum? Meaning there is always room for one. Birth, Postpartum, Death and everything in between. Studies have shown that Birth Doulas reduce time spent in labor & lower the potential of harsh medical intervention. While Death Doulas increase comfort & lower anxiety by taking on what you shouldn’t have to. And providing care, compassion, and education to those they support. Dope start, right?
