Havenly Birth working with Metro Atlanta OB/GYNs
There are so many perks to being a doula in the Metro Atlanta Area. One of them is working with so many incredible health care professionals. Standing with families and working cohesively with others, is truly rewarding and improves everyones experience.
Studies show women who use a birth doula are:
- less likely to need Pitocin
- less likely to have a cesarean birth
- less likely to use any pain medication
- more likely to rate their childbirth experience positively
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine “Published data indicate that one of the most effective tools to improve labor and delivery outcomes is the continuous presence of support personnel, such as a doula. Given that there are no associated measurable harms, this resource is probably underutilized.”
So moral of the story is, when we work together, the journey is better. And who doesn't like to know they are doing a great job?! Thank you to our community for bettering birth for our mamas and babies.
