Why Have a Doula With You at Your Birth?
I have attended women at birth since 1998 and it is so profoundly true that each birth is entirely unique although the portals and stations each woman proceeds through from conception to post partum are the same.

It is important to recognize the primal transition that birth embraces. It is a period of major shift for her. How the mother feels, what she thinks about her process, whether she is “heard” and honored all contribute to her overall well being and her successful bonding and breastfeeding experiences.

Experience Gina Hassan PhD, Pregnancy Support Groups
While pregnancy is generally thought of as a time of joyful anticipation, women actually experience a wide range of emotions during pregnancy. Pregnancy blues, and episodes of anxiety or depression are common during pregnancy. Most women who have these experiences, however, feel isolated and ashamed. Come join others in a supportive group designed to celebrate the wonders of this transition and address the emotional challenges of pregnancy. Learn how to cope better, build a support network, and deal effectively with the complex, sometimes unwelcome, feelings pregnancy can evoke.
