Please note that doulas specialize in non-medical skills and do not perform clinical tasks, such as vaginal exams or fetal heart rate monitoring. Doulas do not diagnose medical conditions, offer second opinions, or give medical advice. The doula’s goal is to help the woman have a positive and satisfying childbirth experience.
