Meetings before Birth

We meet at your home and talk about physiological birth and your expectations on labour. How do you wish to give birth? Are there any fears? What are the Swedish hospital routines? We talk about pain management and relaxation tools and together we try out some of the things me and/or the partner might use as comfort measures during labour and pregnancy. We meet either two or three times, depending on your needs and wishes. 

Pregnancy Massage

We meet once more in your home for a relaxing massage session, with the purpose of boosting oxytocin as well as relieving pain and/or discomfort in late pregnancy.

On call service and Back up Doula

I am on call 10 days before the due date until the baby is born (unless otherwise agreed). This means that I am prepared to cancel all my other activities, day and night, in order to attend your birth. I cooperate with several other doulas, there is always a back up doula engaged for each couple. She steps in case of sickness or other emergencies as well as help out in cases of very long labours. The back up doula usually attends one of the meetings or arranges a separate meeting together with you. 

Extra meeting

I usually offer one extra meeting sometime during week 41 (or earlier) if an induction is planned within the next few days. I then offer labour inducing acupressure, relaxation with the purpose of getting the oxytocin flowing and exercises for optimizing the baby's position. We talk about the upcoming induction, and you have an opportunity to ask any extra questions.

Support during labour

Presence and support from the point of you needing me (we meet up at home or directly at the hospital), until the baby is born.

Visit Postpartum 

The meeting postpartum is a time for reflection and remembering. It is also a time for tying everything together and saying goodbye. When needed, I also give advice and help with breastfeeding and life with small babies.

Price: 13 500 SEK including VAT. I always accept individual payment solutions.

Before you book me as your doula, we meet for an introductory chat, completely free of charge. We talk about birthing with doula support and you get an impression of me and my work. Thereafter you may take your time to make your decision.
