birth doula
Studies show that mothers who have a birth doula as apart of her birth team:
reported having a more positive childbirth experience
decreases the overall cesarean rate by 50%
decreases the length of labor by 25%
decreases the use of pitocin by 40%
decreases requests for an epidural by 60%.
I don’t know about you, but those are some pretty big numbers!
Go in with friends and/or family to give the gift of a positive birth experience, setting mama up to a good start postpartum. You won’t regret it!
