Hiring an
experienced Doula may seem expensive but
its benefits are immeasurable. At present almost
30% of pregnancies end in Caesarean Section. Caesarean
section is major abdominal surgery and should be avoided if
possible. Good preparation coupled with hiring a Doula
is well known to reduce the need for surgery and definitely
makes a better start for mother and baby.
