DIN GRAVIDCOACH
Support for a safe and calm birth
Doula
Med en doula vid er sida optimeras förutsättningar för en positiv förlossningsupplevelse, vilket sätter spår i er som personer, i er som par och i er som föräldrar
-
A doula is a support person for both you who are pregnant and for you who are a partner and/or expectant father or mother.
-
A doula uses her calmness, her presence and all the knowledge that exists around childbirth.
-
A doula works to reduce fear and instill courage and strength so that you feel safe and strong before the birth of your child.
-
A doula has no medical responsibility and does not give medical advice, but is an expert in being a support and a bridge between the expectant parents and maternity care.

Feeling supported during childbirth provides peace and safety, which in turn increases the possibility of a positive experience. We know that a positive birth experience strengthens your self-esteem, your relationship and contributes to a good start to parenthood.
In todays maternity care, you are offered a high level of medical security. It is a challenge for the staff on site to also provide emotional safety, as there is a high workload and a lack of relationship-based care. Our mission as doulas is to help you navigate the birthing process, provide continuous support and be the person in the room who focuses on your well-being. We assist with information, such as what you can expect at the hospital, remind you of your options and guide you in comfort measure strategies. We continuously monitor how you feel emotionally, physically and mentally throughout the birth.
Boka en doula - så här går det till
1. Gratis konsultation (30 minuter)
Det första steget är en kostnadsfri konsultation på 30 minuter. Under detta möte får ni lära känna doulan, ställa frågor och diskutera era behov och önskemål. Doulan förklarar sina tjänster och ni får en känsla för om det är rätt matchning. Konsultationen sker på Zoom.
2. Kostnadsförslag och betänktetid
Efter konsultationen får ni ett kostnadsförslag som tydliggör vad som ingår i doulatjänsterna och eventuella tilläggskostnader. Ni får tid att fundera och besluta om ni vill gå vidare med att anlita doulan.
3. Betala bokningsavgift
När ni bestämt er för att anlita doulan betalar ni en bokningsavgift för att bekräfta er plats. Detta säkerställer att doulan reserverar sin tid för er och är tillgänglig under den planerade förlossningsperioden
4. Planering av möten
Tillsammans planerar ni in de kommande mötena, vanligtvis två till tre förberedande möten. Under dessa träffar diskuterar ni förlossningsplan, smärtlindringsalternativ och hur partnern kan vara delaktig, samt bygger upp en relation för att skapa trygghet inför förlossningen.
5. Förlossning och efterföljande stöd
När förlossningen närmar sig är doulan redo att stödja er vid behov. Efter förlossningen hålls ett uppföljande möte där ni går igenom upplevelsen, och doulan erbjuder fortsatt stöd kring de första veckorna med er bebis.
“We felt pretty confident right away after talking to you. You both felt experienced and down to earth, which feels great! So we would love to have you as a doulas with us on this trip! Feels exciting! ”

Recensioner doulastöd
We are so grateful that we made the decision to have a doula at the birth. I was strengthened in giving birth on my terms and daring to stick to it and daring to visualize my dream birth. As a parent, I appreciated the security that my partner had support and a team player at all times. For me, it was enormously nice to have another pair of hands that could pat, support and relieve pain in different ways.

The advantage of doula-duo is that there was a double competence and experience bank. There were many nice conversations with both Malin and Aniara! For us, it also felt safe to know that in the event of a long process that the doulas could be replaced and thus be able to be a good support all the way. In short, it was worth having a person with you who never left the room. For us, it wasnt even a question of whether we should have a doula with us at the next birth.

It is impossible to summarize how much our doula meant to us and to our birth experience. We wish everyone who is expecting a child the same wonderful experience both before and during birth. I recommend everyone to hire a doula! You wont regret it. My partner and I are so happy that we chose to have a doula and we will never give birth without that support. It gave us both our dream birth.

The prenatal talks with our doula made both my husband and I feel well prepared for the birth.
During the birth itself, it was really nice to have an extra support person. At one point I was afraid that problems I had during my first birth would be repeated. The doula was the only one who understood my fear and thus she, together with the midwife, was able to explain that my fear was not justified.
We can really recommend hiring a doula.

-
Breastfeeding course in your home to create the best conditions for a functioning breastfeeding.

Extended support during the latency phase by having physical support and a doula already during the latency phase. Examples of what she can do is to provide security through her physical presence, guide breathing and relaxation and give a beneficial massage that can make the oxytocin flow and relieve pain.
-
Extended support during the first period at home with, for example, 12 hours of doula support when you can get support in breastfeeding/feeding the baby, advice and support regarding the baby's sleep and well-being, a chance to catch up on sleep or take a shower in peace and quiet. In addition, you get the opportunity to land in the new role as parents with safe and professional support.
