Description

Hello, my name is Nadia Taylor and I am from America and got married to a wonderful Aussie here in Australia! WHAT DOES THE WORD DOULA MEAN? The word "doula" comes from the ancient Greek meaning "a woman who serves" and is now used to refer to a trained and experienced professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to the mother before, during and just after birth; or who provides emotional and practical support during the postpartum period. "Studies have shown that when doulas attend birth, labors are shorter with fewer complications, babies are healthier and they breastfeed more easily." A BIRTH DOULA.... Recognizes birth as a key experience the mother will remember all her life Understands the physiology of birth and the emotional needs of a woman in labor Assists the woman in preparing for and carrying out her plans for birth Stays with the woman throughout the labor Provides emotional support, physical comfort measures and an objective viewpoint, as well as helping the woman get the information she needs to make informed decision Facilitates communication between the laboring woman, her partner and her clinical care providers Perceives her role as nurturing and protecting the woman's memory of the birth experience Allows the woman's partner to participate at his/her comfort level (A birth doula certified by DONA International is designated by the initials CD(DONA).) Quote By American Pregnancy- “Doulas often use the power of touch and massage to reduce stress and anxiety during labor. According to physicians Marshal Klaus and John Kennell, massage helps stimulate the production of natural oxytocin. Our brains secrete natural oxytocin to the bloodstream which results in a feeling of well-being, drowsiness and a raised pain threshold."We also help with body positioning to help speed up labor. We encourage relaxation through massage, visualization and understanding: fewer fears means less anxiety which in turn reduces pain. A relaxed mind and body allows your body to labor unhindered. A tense mother can draw out her labor hours longer than necessary. Let us work with you to make this birth an experience you will treasure!"
