    Why to have a Doula

    A doula is a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical and informational support to the mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula’s purpose is to help women have a safe, memorable and empowering birthing experience because she recognizes birth as a key experience the mother will remember all her life. The doula understands the physiology of birth and the emotional needs of a woman in labor. She assists the woman in preparing for and carrying out her plans for birth. Stays with the woman throughout the labor and facilitates communication between the laboring woman, her partner and her clinical care providers. The doula does not take away from the partner’s role, she allows the woman's partner to participate at his/her comfort level.…

    Doula Supported Births

    This review provides a clear pattern of evidence that shows doula-supported births lead to a reduction in cesarean rates. A reduction in cesarean rate can be explained due to the fact that doula-supported births are also shown to decrease the length of labor, the amount and type of analgesic used, factors that greatly influence cesarean births. The reduction of cesarean rates through the use of continuous doula support is relevant because it provides a way to minimize the negative health outcomes and complications of the mother and baby and promote crucial aspects of the birthing process. With these results, medical professionals can continue to implement and promote the use of doulas in the hospital setting.…

Possibly another revision would be a tax break for families that attend and breastfed their babies for a certain amount of time that can be documented through regular visits with a pediatrician. Incentives to a family’s financial bottom line may increase participation. As the initiative and programs continue to grow and serve the communities the revisions will come to light to make the most benefits for the community being served.…

    Cultural Influences On My Personal Culture

    Only in Miami can you see a Cuban family-run restaurant serving Italian pizza while playing a style of music that originated in Africa. Every day we experience the foods, music, and traditions of many different cultures. Almost no family shares the same cultural blend as another. My family is no exception to this trend. My mom was born and raised in Florida however; her father has descendants from England. My paternal grandmother’s family came from France, but the war kept sending them back and forth between Spain and France. My grandmother is the only one of her siblings born in Spain. I also have German and Venezuelan roots. I think of it all as the ingredients in the dish Chicken Chop; the most prominent ingredients in this “Cultural Dish” are the English and Hispanic cultures. These are the elements, sprinkled with some cosmopolitan influential flare, that have influenced my personal culture over the years.…

    Post-Partum Observation

    I recently went with my daughter for her two week follow up post-partum visit. The main items missing was education and patient centered environment. The nurse obtained VS and brief questions about the birth date and discharge. She then left to return 15 minutes later with a consent for birth control treatment. At the time my daughter was indecisive on two different options and we were wanting more info/education on the treatment. During the entire process my daughter was not given education verbally or through handouts about common post-partum problems like depression or breast feeding. My first impression was a lack of communication and the visit took way too long, however when view it from role of the provider the care was very limited…
