What is a Doula?

After you give birth, wouldn’t it be great if your mom was able to come over and spend hours helping you get ahead of the dishes, keeping your older kids entertained and then going home at the end of the day?

Or maybe a best friend who you can open up to about your struggles and who won’t bat an eye when you start telling your birth story… again.

This is what a doula does!

73% of mothers struggled keeping up with general household cleaning during their postpartum period.

77% of mothers stated they struggled with sleep deprivation during their postpartum phase.

75% of mothers stated they struggled with fatigue during the postpartum phase.

You’re there for your baby. Your doula is there for you.

"I wish I had a doula to get me through my postpartum depression. I had no one! I was on the east coast away from my friends and family, newly married and first kid. I never knew it would be so difficult!"

1 in 4 women struggle with a perinatal mood disorder (PMD) like postpartum depression or postpartum anxiety.

Doulas are non-medical professionals that hold the fountain of wisdom in all things mom and baby.

Start a registry that will give you something invaluable. Those first few months with your baby should be just that, with your baby.

Don’t let it go to waste because you were too afraid to ask for support!
