Birthmark Doula Collective

Birthmark Doula Collective Helping families have positive & empowering births. What is a doula? Why should I hire a doula?

A doula is a trained and experienced professional that provides continuous physical, emotional, and informational support before, during, and after birth, or in the postpartum period. A doula’s job is to completely support the pregnant woman and to help her to have an empowered and positive pregnancy, birth, and/or early parenting experience. Doula support has been shown to:
- Increase positive bi

rth experiences for the woman (and her partner),
- Reduce the use of medical interventions (such as C-sections)
- Shorten labor time
- Reduce medical costs (fewer procedures, shorter stay)

This is one of the most common questions breastfeeding parents have, especially in those early days!

Remember, you don’t have to figure this out alone! Questions are normal & we are here to answer!

If feeding hurts baby isn’t gaining as expected, you’re worried about your supply, or something just doesn’t feel right; reaching out for lactation support early can make a HUGE difference.

Support is a part of the process! Let Birthmark Doulas support you! 💛💛💛

Before there were pumps, apps, feeding trackers, or lactation appointments, there was community knowledge.

There were mothers, aunties, grandmothers, midwives, neighbors, and generations of people helping families learn how to nourish their babies.

That history has also been interrupted by slavery, exploitation, racism, medical mistreatment, and inequitable access to care.

And still, we nurture.

This Black Breastfeeding Week, we honor the Black families reclaiming feeding as a place of connection, autonomy, nourishment, and joy.

There is power in being able to make an informed choice about how you feed your baby,and having the support you need to carry that choice out.

August 25-31 is Black Breastfeeding Week! 🖤🤎🖤🤎

That means we’ll be celebrating and uplifting Black families this week!

For generations, Black women have nourished babies (their own and too often, others’), while navigating systems that denied them autonomy over their bodies, families, and labor.

Today, Black breastfeeding can be an act of reclamation, connection, choice, and joy! We honor the ancestors who nurtured before us and the families continuing that legacy today.

Breastfeeding doesn’t always end because of low milk supply.

Not often, families stop breastfeeding because they’re navigating pain, exhaustion, conflicting advice, returning to work, or trying to do it all without enough support.

Whether your breastfeeding journey lasts 2 weeks, 2 months, or 2 years, you deserve care that meets you where you are.

You don’t have to figure it out alone! Call Birthmark for lactation support! 💛
