“’She made everything better for me,’ Baker says of her doula. ‘She knew exactly what I wanted, she knew me, she’d spent many more hours with me than the midwife in the room who had never met me before.’”

“Lying head-to-head and holding her doula’s hand throughout the labour made ‘every stress and worry go away’, Baker adds.”
