After the birth of my precious daughter, I cannot say enough great things about DC Birth Doulas group. From the first introductory meeting, I had a very positive feeling about this group. I was not necessarily convinced of how helpful birth doulas would be, but I personally liked all doulas and decided to give it a shot. Once we signed the contrcat, my husband and I felt we needed a little bit more help and counseling. DC birth doulas made sure we had all of our pressing questions covered (which was so helpful). If you are a new parent to be and you don't have any experience with babies, just talking to someone experienced is of great great help. Few references that we were given we totally used and found them valuable. When it came to the delivery, here is where I finally realized how incredibly awesome it was to have a birth doula. During the delivery, no one really steps up to provide you with needed guidance, instruction, breathing technique, etc. Doctors check up on you, sure. Husband really feels for you. But really, when it comes to it, the one person who I personally found to be so so helpful was our birth doula. Her presence and help made birth so much more manageable. I cannot describe it well enough. Needless to say, if I ever have more kids, I would without a single doubt will go to the DC Birth Doulas!
