Birthing, Bonding & Breastfeeding beautifully shares, "A doula can enhance the feelings of support, stability, relaxation, safety and strength in a birth setting. She stays close the entire time. She anticipates your needs and meets them. She communicates gently and timely. She helps other support persons to relax and focus on the laboring woman. I have been so honored to attend births and see the tremendous resolve in labor followed by elation at delivery. Sometimes I answer questions and give reassurance, sometimes I sit silently and offer only my presence. I have given foot rubs, back rubs, ice chips, honey sticks and suggestions. A doula is a servant that is a guide through one of your most momentous times of life. Find someone who is prepared to care for you, trained to understand the Scope of Practice and gels well with your birth team. Did you have a doula? Would you for your next birth? World Doula Week coming in March!"
