I love the study shared from the “Birthing From Within” book. It’s about the impact of Doula support at a birth. It involved Doula’s being active, hands-on with verbal encouragement, Doula’s sitting quietly in the room being an observer with hands-off and no verbal communication, and lastly, not having a Doula present at all (study is on the last slide).
The study still shows that no matter what, having a Doula present for your birth has a safer outcome compared to not having Doula support at all.
Doulas, Birthworkers, Birth Sister, or however you choose to be called in this field, either way, YOU ARE ESSENTIAL and little do you know, your energy makes a difference. It’s important as Doulas that we always maintain a level of professionalism, integrity, respect, and love for our clients. When these principles are activated, trust is earned 💜🌱
Let’s work together to change the narrative ✨
