Positive Effects of Having a Doula
There have been numerous research and clinical studies conducted to find out the effects of having doulas present at birth.
The clinical studies show:
- Labour tends to be shorter and have fewer complications
- Reduced needs and requests for medical interventions such as pitocin, forceps, and Caesarean-sections
- Reduction of negative feelings about one’s birth experience
Research shows that Doula-supported parents:
- Feel more secure and cared for
- Are more successful in adapting and transitioning to the new family dynamics
- Have greater success with breastfeeding
- Have greater self-confidence
- Have less postpartum depression
- Have lower incidence of abuse
Inner Earth Doula: Maria Kawata
I provide emotional, physical, spiritual, and informational support to mothers and families during their magnificent journey of pregnancy, birth, and beyond. I will be a continuous presence of support throughout the time. I want to be a positive force, empowering women and their partners to believe in their own body and soul.
I believe that pregnancy, birth, and beyond is a beautiful and special time with all the dynamics of life intertwining with each other. It is a time of transition and when being well supported, it is experienced positively at its full potential, whatever the experience may bring. I will do my best in supporting the experience so it will be remembered forever as what you had hoped and wished for.
If you would like to consider meeting with me, please contact me for an obligation-free interview. During the interview, we will speak to one another to see if what we provide best matches your needs and wants.
There are absolutely no obligations and you may ask any questions you may have. I believe in creating and building a trusting and open relationship with one another, since I think that is what all women deserve.
It will be an honour to meet you during this magical time.
