Might ruffle some feathers with this one 🙃🫶🏼
Not every doula is for every family, but I do believe it’s a disservice to your clients to not support every type of birth 🤷🏻♀️🫣 We all have biases, but it’s our job as doulas to be able to put ours aside and meet our clients exactly where they’re at. The way birth unfolds is never a guarantee: no matter the birth location, the interventions or lack thereof, or the providers. When we decenter what we believe to be “best” or “right” or “true”, we not only open ourselves to the possibility of being surprised, but we empower our clients to make decisions that feel truly right for them and reduce the stigma that they most definitely have already come across about how they should give birth. Add to their peace, not their pressure 🤎☕️
