[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like your doctors think you are developing preeclampsia, and the doulas are undermining your doctors' advice about how to manage it. Is that right? In that case, I'd not only fire them, but also consider reporting them to your OBs/hospital after you have recovered from delivery. If you're going to be induced, you also have zero need for a doula. The induction will be scheduled, and you'll have an epidural. There's literally no reason for them to be there, especially if they are going to be interfering. [b]The labor and delivery nurses will help you[/b]. [/quote] I would not count on this. Make sure your husband is comfortable being a coach and advocate as well. Our nurses were extremely nice but not helpful, and they made one pretty huge mess up that needed to be corrected by the OB during pushing, so while a doula might not be the answer I would not rely 100% on the nurses.[/quote]
