Using a Doula for Pain Relief – Evidence Based Birth®

By

“Providing doula support to birthing people is a risk-free endeavor, and it’s highly effective for improving health outcomes such as decreasing your risk for Cesarean or forceps or vacuum delivery. People who use a doula report experiencing less pain and anxiety during labor. They’re also much more likely to be highly satisfied with their birth experience.

“In one study that looked at giving couples a doula, they found that all of the partners rated their experience with a doula as positive or extremely positive. So, typically, both the birthing people and their partners are highly satisfied with the help they got from their doula.”

“Donating breast milk is a thoughtful idea, but there is definitely some red tape you have to go through to make it happen. Lynn Josten, a lactation specialist at Avery McKennan, said that milk donations are similar to blood donations. The people donating must go through screenings,in which they discuss, among other things, the health of the donor and their family.”
