Birth Doula Care
|
 |
The birth of a baby is not just another day in the life of a woman. It is a life-changing
event with long-lasting physical, spiritual and emotional effects. A birth doula offers
physical comfort, spiritual connection, mental preparation and emotional empathy for the
birth family. Staying with you and your partner(s) continuously throughout labor and the
first few hours postpartum, she can ease physical discomfort with a variety of massage,
acupressure and relaxation techniques. She can remind your caregivers of your birth
preferences. Most of all, she can help you, as a woman, create a positive memory of one
of the most important days in your life and the life of your baby.
