Doulas and partners have different areas of expertise. We are the experts on birth and supporting laboring women while your partner is the expert on YOU. This role of the loving partner is essential and not one that can be filled by a doula. Dos Doulas reassures your partner that birth is normal and thereby allowing them to be emotionally present for the laboring woman.
