Labor support involves having someone present during childbirth to provide comfort, guidance, and information. This support can come from a trained labor support specialist, often referred to as a doula, who aids in maintaining comfort and movement tһгoᴜɡһoᴜt the birthing process, offering reassurance that the experience is normal and healthy.
Other sources of support include partners, сɩіпісаɩ caregivers, and friends or family.
A doula, who remains with the mother from labor’s onset until an hour after birth, can provide invaluable assistance, helping initiate breastfeeding and offering information and emotional support.
This type of continuous support from a doula has shown the most benefits for the health and safety of both the mother and baby.
