The language of labor! Your doula will use the information at hand to suggest positions, explain the next steps, or give you some options to discuss with your team. Sometimes we switch support techniques or pause for a break when rest can be crucial- especially after a cervical exam which doesn’t match with the intensity of contractions. Note- These are just a few of the things your provider can find, they may also look for baby’s position, check for a cord/meconium staining, cervical lips or scar tissue and more!
