Meet the Doulas of Whole Mothering Center at Belle Maman

The Doulas of Whole Mothering Center will be at Belle Maman this Saturday from 10 am- 2 pm. In addition to this meet and greet, Belle Maman will be giving a free gift to the first 25 customers!

What is a Doula?
Doulas provide emotional and physical support to a woman and her partner during pregnancy, labor, birth and early postpartum period. They are called many things including: Childbirth Assistant, Labor Support Professional, Birth Assistant, Birth Companion, etc., but the description we like best is "walks with mother". Basically, we 'walk' with you on your journey through pregnancy, childbirth and early mothering to help educate you, support you and validate the choices you make for your birth and family. In addition, we are also available to walk with you as a 'mother's helper' when you need of help or support with your children at other times.


Doulas can help you achieve:
a 50% reduction in cesarean rates
a 25% shorter labor
a 60% reduction in epidural requests
a 40% reduction in oxytocin (pitocin) use
a 30% reduction in analgesia use
a 40% reduction in forceps delivery
...who wouldn't want this?

Attend event and receive 20% off the birth doula package and 40% off the postpartum doula package with the purchase of a birth doula package!!!
Doulas educate women through their pregnancies and support them through their labors. Stop by during the event or visit their website for more information: www.wholemotheringcenter.com.
