How exciting that you are needing the support of a Doula.  

​

Research shows that having a Doula with you through Childbirth can:

​

• Help to experience shorter labours. 

• Be less likely to need an epidural. 

• Be less likely to have a caesarean birth or an instrumental birth.

• Can reduce the need for pain relief.

​

I also think I am able to really support the birthing partner who can feel helpless, nervous, hungry, be in need of a break or just need some guidance and reminding of what was discussed beforehand.
