π©·ππ 6 months ago I was playing the role of both a doula & sister supporting my sister during her labor and birth of her baby girl, Emery Jade. I snapped this photos on my phone to remember how special the role is of a Dad during birth!
What you may not realize is that doulas don't try to replace your partner.. together we work as a team to support Mom in the best ways possible! πͺ π
Dad's your role is VITAL in Mom's birth! You provide a sense of security and love! No one loves Mom and baby like you do! Your presence in the birth is what keeps Mom feeling safe!
As a doula I can help guide Dad into many great ways to be there for Mom by offering ways to provide her with both emotional and physical support as well! π«Ά
Dad's/birth partners are there to LOVE and support Mom as she goes through the most beautiful and challenging time, the birth of her baby! πΆπ©·π©΅
A doula is there to offer support and advice as needed, provide comfort measures to cope with labor, advocate for Mom's birth plan to the rest of the care team, and make sure she is always feeling heard and seen during her labor and delivery!
Mom, Dad, & Doula. The perfect birth team! πΆ
Feel free to reach out if you are considering a doula for pregnancy and birth! π€
