Description

Doulas Heather Rich and Madeline Mosco with InJoyBirth discuss their work in helping expectant mothers and fathers through the complex and sometimes scary world of pregnancy and life after delivery.  

They discuss what a doula's role is, what it is not and how it can be helpful even in more traditional settings like hospitals.  These two go on to talk about how they offer postpartum support because the job of child-rearing is only just beginning once baby comes home. 

Heather and Madeline dispel misconceptions about what moms and dads "should feel" and how cope with the feelings like "mom guilt", sky high expectations and the feeling of having no time to one's self. 

The professional at InJoyBirth talk about how they are advocates and partners for each of their Clients. They work hand in hand with Dads too to assist them in being the best that they can be and to help guide the way for everyone involved to 'climb the mountain' that is the pregnancy, delivery and immediate aftermath of this life stage.
