Benefits of a Doula:

Don't just take my word for it, here is something
you probably don't know about what the research says
on the benefits of a doula... You see, there have been several studies,articles and books written about doula support.
What it all boils down to is the most famous
*Mothering the Mother" by Klaus, Kennel and Klaus.
In their studies they found that the presence of a doula:

• Reduced c-sections by 50%
• Love gives birth
• Reduced the length of labor by 25%
• Life on time
• Reduced oxytocin use by 40%
• Healthy brain function for your baby
• Reduced the need for pain medication by 30%
• Comfortable for you and your baby
• Reduced the need for forceps by 40%
• Gives you and your baby safe delivery
• Reduced requests for epidurals by 60%
• Gives you and your baby healthy delivery

Yes, you read that right ...Klaus stated  
"Doula support enhances the well-being of mothers & babies, leads to fewer  medical interventions in the process
of labor and delivery, and saves money for the individual
​and the hospital. 

We're not through yet ...
"A doula can also enhance the satisfaction of the birthing mother
with her birth, her partner, heighten self esteem
and bonding with the baby, increase breastfeeding success,
reduce feeding problems, and has even been shown
to bolster the father's involvement during birth,
and heighten satisfaction with the birth.

That's just a tip of an iceberg...

A Doula give the dad the home court advantage by providing support and encouragement, dads want to fix it, knowing they have their own birth team increases the couples confidence to attain the birthing experience of their dreams
