Held in Motherhood with Hannah Willsmore
What is the difference between a Midwife and Doula?
In your journey of pregnancy and birth, having the right support team can make such difference to your experience. I often get asked what the difference is between a doula and a midwife - which is a very valid question! While both can provide incredible support during pregnancy, labour and birth, their roles, scope, and care provided differ. Let's explore these differences to help you make an informed choice about your birth support. I also share my experience having both a midwife and doula at my birth.
