A 2025 study published in AJOG adds powerful, up-to-date data showing associations between doula care and improved maternal and newborn outcomes.

Key Maternal Outcomes:

More vaginal births after cesarean (VBAC): For every 100 patients who received doula care, there were 15 to 34 additional VBACs compared with those without doula care.

Higher postpartum follow-up attendance: 5 to 6 more per 100 received postpartum office visits.

Key Neonatal / Infant Outcomes

Increased exclusive breastfeeding rates: Babies whose families had doula support were more likely to breastfeed exclusively.

Fewer preterm births (and early preterm births): Doula-supported births showed a reduction in preterm birth rates.

In short, the study links doula care with improvements in birth outcomes — across birth mode (more VBACs), infant health (less prematurity), and early infant care (breastfeeding, postpartum follow-up).

Liz and Toni had a great time at the Ann Arbor Birth & Baby Fair at Little Break. We love not only connecting with expecting families, but also with the other professionals doing birth work. We talked to doulas, lactation consultants, pelvic floor PTs, pediatricians, and more.

Happy Taco Tuesday. I just got this little guy, and I love the reminder. It's okay to fall apart sometimes. Tacos fall apart & we still love them.
