I am so excited to kick off our new VLOG series, "Ask the Doula". I will be inviting area doulas to come in and answer our reader questions so that you can get a feel for all the different things a doula can bring to your pregnancy, your birth space, and the support they offer throughout the childbearing year. I invited my friend and colleague Darcy Newlin to join me and answer our first question, "What is a doula's role at birth?"
