Frequently Asked Questions

  • Will my partner feel replaced by a doula?

    Doulas are in no way meant to take on the same role as your partner. Your partner knows you, your comforts, your emotions, and what you need better than anyone and will be a huge part of your birth, recovery and postpartum period. Doulas come with knowledge about pregnancy, birth, and postpartum that your partner may not have and help them find the best way to apply that knowledge to you. We love to work with partners, giving them tips for comfort measures and empowering them to be a part of the journey. 

  • Are postpartum doulas nurses?

    Nope!  Postpartum doulas are non-medical professionals.  We do not check incisions or answer medical questions.  We do know what does and does not fall within the range of normal.  And we have a comprehensive list of resources for you.

  • I don't live in the Austin area but want to work with Pocket Doula Care

We hired Vanessa for a second baby after having a not so good experience with our first. She made sure I was taking meds, had water, snacks and even inquired about my healing. My husband was able to focus on our first while I was able to sleep and spend lots of bonding time with our new little one.
