What is a Birth Doula?
While your partner is an irreplaceable support person that provides love and security, he/she has not likely had training regarding birth support, medical terminology, and physiology. The same is true about your mother, sister, or best friend.
Your care provider may not able to stay with you throughout the course of labor. The same is true for nurses or birthing assistants. While many care providers would love to be able to spend more time with you, they are typically caring for multiple mothers at once and are simply unable to give each their undivided attention. Additionally, their primary focus is your medical health (as it should be!).
A doula has invested time in developing a relationship with you, is professionally trained, and remains with you, providing emotional and physical support, through your entire birth!
Studies have shown the effects of having a doula present for your birth include:

Kari was amazing during my 39 hour labor! I wanted a natural birth with no interventions. Even though I ended up needing some interventions, Kari helped put it into perspective for me and educated us on the options we were offered so we could pick the least invasive. She was also a God send for my husband. With her there, they were able to alternate twenty minute naps to stay alert. If it wasn't for her, my husband would have been as tired as I was. My baby needed to tilt his head when I was at 8 cm. She immediately knew what we needed to do to help the baby get in the proper position and we did so successfully. If she wasn't there, we would have had no idea how to get the baby in the proper position. We look forward to having her there at future deliveries!
