Traditional Postnatal Doula

What is Traditional Postpartum Support?

 

There are many approaches to postpartum doula support, Influenced by different cultural practices, traditions and nourishments. The goal for all of these practices is to promote healing and maternal restoration post birth; as well as support the family in the early days of welcoming a new baby. ​

​

The role of a traditional postpartum doula is to create an environment where the mother feels safe and at ease; enough to allow herself to rest, heal, and blossom into motherhood. It is recommended that mum stays in bed for the first 5 days post birth and the first 15 days in or around the home. Having that vital support will promote proper bonding with your baby, improve long-term breastfeeding success, and help reduce the likely-hood of postpartum mood disorders.
