A doula and a midwife have a unique and important role to play in your birth plan. A midwife is a specialist who's qualified to deliver babies and care for a woman and her baby during pregnancy, labor and after the birth. A doula, on the other hand, can offer support, guidance and practical help throughout your birth and beyond. Some doulas may be trained midwives, but the term itself refers to a role that's not medically qualified. The purpose of World Doula Week is to empower doulas all over the world to improve the physiological, social, emotional, and psychological health of women, newborns and families in birth and in the postpartum period. Also, you asked- Should I Eat My Placenta? If you've ever had questions about the benefits of using your placenta - and the ways to do it - look no further than our conversation about it in this episode with Dr. Oakley and special guest Mandy Dalhover, Midwife/CNM.
