​Every woman experiences pregnancy differently.  For some, it is a effortless magical time where they don't have to make any major lifestyle changes.  For others, the pressure to be diligent and healthy coupled with hormonal changes, can be anxiety inducing.

As a holistic doula,  I like to assist my clients by providing them with the knowledge necessary to reach their pregnancy goals.  It's good to have support during this time (if you're reading this article I assume you're currently pregnant or trying to conceive) and doula will do just that.

Firstly, if you can, hire an ANTEPARTUM DOULA.  She will help you with the transition into parenthood or welcoming another child.  Antepartum doulas are especially helpful for bedridden moms and moms whose pregnancies are considered high risk.
