505 0  Every pregnant woman deserves a doula -- Why choose a 
       doula? -- About pregnancy and choices -- Fear, and how it 
       relates to birthing -- Hormones, let them flow! -- The 
       role of the doula in your labour and birth -- 
       Breastfeeding -- Helpful support during pregnancy. 
520    Imagine birthing your baby exactly the way you would like 
       -- quietly and peacefully in a dimly lit room in absolute 
       control of your labour and birth, feeling safe and 
       supported. A doula can help you achieve this. Doulas are 
       trained to look after you, both emotionally and physically,
       during pregnancy, labour and birthing. They empower you to
       negotiate the best care for you and your baby. They act as
       your advocate, steering you and your partner through the 
       sometimes daunting hospital system. Or if you have chosen 
       to have your baby at a birth centre or at home, your doula
       will be with you and your partner providing support, 
       reassurance and encouragement. This book will discuss what
       a difference a doula can make.
