FAQ’s
WHAT IF MY PREGNANCY BECOMES HIGH RISK?
While a doula cannot change your health circumstances, I am here to offer emotional and physical support in circumstances that are often stressful, confusing and emotionally draining.
WHAT IF I CHOOSE TO GET AN EPIDURAL?
My job as your doula is to show you support in all the decisions you make in regards to your birth, and that includes whether you get an epidural or not! Before the epidural, there are sensations that I will help you work through to keep you as comfortable as possible. The epidural may not take away all the discomforts childbirth may bring, and I will be there to support you through that.
HOW SOON SHOULD I HIRE A DOULA?
You can never experience too much support too early. I begin working with most of my clients in the second trimester, but have had many clients prep earlier for their births!
