Publisher Description: In this comprehensive discussion of how a doula can offer new parents practical, emotional and informational support, Maddie McMahon also explains how and why many parents now choose to employ one. Having an experienced female birth companion, who is neither a health professional nor a part of the mother's social circle, has long been known to have a tangible, positive effect on a woman's experience of childbirth and the outcome of her labor. |
