The Hayward Doula

~Heng Ou, The First Forty Days

A labor doula is trained to provide physical, emotional, and informational support throughout pregnancy and birth.

My goal is to help you become the hero of your pregnancy and birth experience.

Benefits of a labor doula:

• Reduced likelihood of cesarean birth
  
• Increased confidence & relaxation
  
• Greater satisfaction with birth experience
  
• More positive long-term memories
  
• And so much more!!
  

Labor doula services include:

• Prenatal visits (2)
  
• Evidence-based prenatal education
  
• Continuous labor support
  
• Postpartum visit (1)
  
• Check-in
  
• Lactation support
  
• Process birth experience
  

A postpartum doula is trained to provide physical, emotional, and informational support in the days and weeks immediately following baby’s arrival.

My goal as a postpartum doula is to help mothers experience a state of “not doing” so they can heal physically and emotionally.

Benefits of a postpartum doula:

• Decreased anxiety
  
• Increased confidence
  
• Improved postpartum mental health
• Family bonding and support for partners and siblings
• And so much more!!
  

Postpartum services:

• Food prep

My name is Blair, and I am passionate about partnering with women and families to help them claim their rightful role as the hero of their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum story.

After birthing both of my daughters at home, I realized that my calling is to walk alongside women and families during this transformative time in their lives.

As a doula I will be your biggest cheerleader and advocate throughout pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. I am providing doula services in Northwest Wisconsin as I pursue a career in Direct Entry Midwifery through Southwest Wisconsin Technical College.

If you want to be the hero in your birth story, please reach out for a free, no obligation, consultation. It would be an honor to connect with you.

Sincerely,

Blair Flickinger, Student Midwife
