Caesarean birth doula
Your Birth
As your doula, I'm here to support you- whoever you are, in whatever choices you make. Whilst physiological birth is my special interest, alongside this I truly believe that there should be no hierarchy in birth. If a caesarean birth is in your path, then I would love to support you in making it the best experience possible. Some of the most powerful, beautiful and healing birth experiences I've come across have been belly births. You know what's right for you better than anyone else, after all.
As part of this package we would cover elements of caesarean birth in detail antenatally exploring;
considering the benefits and risks of caesareans and whether this is the right choice for you (if appropriate to your situation)
understanding your choices and options within a caesarean birth
emotional support to help you have a beautiful birthing experience, mindset and affirmations for caesarean birth,
creating a personalised birth plan,
a unique approach to postpartum recovery
This package is for you if;
-you know off the bat that you are going to have a caesarean birth and you want to be supported fully in the path to birthing your baby abdominally and optimising your recovery thereafter.
- if you’re leaning towards having a caesarean birth because you feel it’s the best option for you and/or your baby, and want to have a safe space to explore and be supported whatever you decide.
- if along the course of your antenatal care it arises that there is a medical indication that necessitates a caesarean birth and you want to be supported and prepared to be autonomous and in your power despite this not being your first/preferred option for how you wanted to birth your baby.
Prices for my caesarean birth support range from £800-£2400 with the option to add additional postnatal support sessions as needed.
