A Virtual Doula? What's that?
Thinking you want some support for your pregnancy, labor, and delivery but don't want another person in the room when the time comes? Do you prefer a room to yourself for almost the whole labor process with just your husband/partner there to support and occasional check ins from medical care, etc? Maybe a virtual doula is for you!
