Testimonial for Diksha Berebitsky
I really thought I would want to Sister Doula but after meeting with Diksha who was much more like a wise auntie I was like that is the type of person that I want to have. If you really want to own your birthing experience and be reassured and comforted during the process and not be afraid and feel like there are tools to help you with the pain aside from the epidural, then you need to get a doula. In general their price range is between 800 and $1,200 in small markets. I don't know what they are like in big markets like Los Angeles or New York but probably double. Doulas seem to be like called to this work not a medical thing it's really much more it's a woman's labor companion and what she does is really make sure that you're comfortable as much as possible and that your partner some people as much as possible because he will need or she will need to leave at some point to get some error or to get food because they won't be feeding the partner in the hospital or make phone calls and you are not going to want to be alone in that room. It is worth every penny. Some insurances even cover them because they were outcomes are statistically much better with doulas. There are fewer C-sections and less trauma to the mother. I don't know what to tell you guys if you're not going to use a doula you're crazy. This is especially true if you want to have a natural birth . If you want to encapsulate your placenta (!!!) or if you are single. Or scared at all of the birth. I practically worship this woman, who I believe gave me the birth I wanted most.
