I trained to be Mom's labor coach. I had been through the classes with her and Dad for the first birth. I would have to be Dad this time. Mom and I actually got pretty close as a result. #doula #suicide #trauma #cptsd #writer #sociology

Ask A Surrogacy Expert!

As an intended parent, I'm not giving birth. Why do I need a doula?

Check out Ashley's answer about how doulas, while not required for intended parents, can still be an amazing support during the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

Okay... it just occurred to me that I'm a doula.

"Dafuq??"

Hear me out.

At the neuroqueer meetings, I don't pontificate for two hours. I am facilitating the discussion. Like a doula. The doula does not give birth but facilitates the birth.

Similarly, when I tutor, I usually facilitate the student's understanding. They bring me their problems and we discuss them. I explain theory as needed.

(I could teach a class from scratch, but I've not done it, and to be frank, I don't think it is a great use of anyone's time or money.)

Next month, members of our team will be attending the DONA International Conference! We’re honored to connect with birth and postpartum professionals from around the world and share how surrogacy plays a vital role in supporting growing families. 🍼🌍

We’re always learning and growing so we can better support our surrogates and intended parents every step of the way.

Also I'd like to mention an another interesting project - Death Over Dinner (https://deathoverdinner.org/) it is an initiative launched in 2013 to spark conversations about death and end-of-life wishes over shared meals.

With over 100,000 dinners worldwide, it offers tools, prompts, a resource library (reads, watches, listens), and editions like Australian and Jewish.

Part of RoundGlass, it aims to normalize death talks, reducing suffering through communication.

The subject of death should no longer be taboo, because death is a part of life. Do not ignore this important part.

“Our great-grandparents were told that babies were found under gooseberry bushes or cabbages; our children are likely to be told that those who have passed on… are changed into flowers or lie at rest in lovely gardens.” — Caitlin Doughty

The task of an end-of-life doula is therefore not to improve the client’s condition in the moment, but to create a safe and comfortable space so that they can understand and live their feelings here and now: express them, cry, get angry.

Contact with an end-of-life doula can significantly improve the condition of the dying person and their loved ones.

They do not have personal relationships with their clients and will not unload their emotions on them, even if it is difficult for them.

To cope with their condition, doulas undergo supervision and many also undergo personal therapy.
