Fertility Doula Support 

Many of you might have heard about birth and postpartum doulas as an option to consider once you are pregnant. Doulas are women who help individuals or couples have healthy pregnancies and prepare for the birth of their babies. But few people know that you don’t have to wait until pregnancy to get doula support. 

Fertility doulas are a great way to get help from the very beginning. What exactly is a fertility doula? A fertility doula is a trained non-medical professional that can walk with you throughout your fertility journey and provide educational and emotional support during the preconception stage. Fertility doulas can be a lifeline in helping you navigate fertility treatments and reproductive technology by providing nonjudgemental support and a listening ear when you need it most. Many fertility doulas incorporate holistic, mind-body approaches that serve as complementary tools to aid fertility treatments and help you achieve your goals with less stress and more calm and ease. 

When to consider Fertility Doula Support: 

  1. When you are just starting to think about planning a pregnancy in the coming months and want to gain insights on how to best prepare.
  2. When you have been trying for several months or years with no success and want to gain a deeper understanding of your reproductive health, learn evidence-based information to support your fertility and explore your options.
  3. When you are considering or undergoing reproductive medicine and fertility treatments, a fertility doula can support you in taking a holistic mind/body approach to complement these treatments. She can also provide emotional support and encouragement throughout the process.
  4. When you are experiencing loss or a conception after loss, a fertility doula provides heart-centered support to help you process, grieve, heal, and move forward toward your goals.
  5. When you move through early pregnancy after loss or infertility, a fertility doula offers continued support, holding your hand through the early stages of pregnancy.

Regardless of what stage you are on your journey to parenthood, a fertility doula can meet you where you are and provide holistic, compassionate care and understanding.
