Saúde Materna: nova lei garantirá doulas no SUS?

Profissional dá apoio físico e emocional para que a gestante viva o parto com autonomia e dignidade. Sua regulamentação é primeiro passo para reduzir cesáreas e abusos médicos. Mas garanti-la para todas dependerá também do fortalecimento da Atenção Básica

"New Oregon laws expand doula access for expectant parents"

https://www.streetroots.org/news-stories/2026/04/08/new-oregon-laws-expand-doula-access-for-expectant-parents/

"Oregon’s new laws expanding access to doulas could save lives — and provide something a little closer to the level of support new mothers routinely get outside the US."

“Doula care is continuous, relational support during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period … doulas are not there to diagnose or treat — they are there to support.”

New Oregon laws expand doula access for expectant parents

The laws could improve Oregon parents' maternal outcomes by increasing prenatal and postpartum support by making it easier to access a doula

A wide-ranging health care bill that includes a provision expanding doula services for low-income families passed out of the Missouri House on Thursday.

@AssociatedPress @health-AssociatedPress Great article, but whoa, I really question the use of "luxury" in the headline. Really, it's more like "Once shunned by the medical establishment, doula care is going mainstream." #doula #doulas

Hey!!

Is anyone on here a Black birth worker or know one?

For my research, I am seeking to interview as many Black midwives (and other Blk birth workers, but midwifery is the central focus) as possible and get connected to birthing centers employing Black birth workers, esp. in the US South.

If you are/someone you know is interested, pls DM me! Thanks for reading!

*pls boost!!*

Question everything, mama.

If they can’t tell you the benefits, risks, AND alternatives, get a different service provider. Period.

Doctor, OB, Doula, Midwife, Nurse— they should ALL be able to tell you the benefits, risks, AND alternatives for EVERYTHING they recommend to you in order to provide 100% informed consent—

If they have not or cannot provide those 3 things for you, you have the right to deny ANY recommendation, procedure, intervention, etc.

If they go ahead and perform any procedure or intervention without your consent, they are committing obstetrical violence, coercion, and birth r*pe. Full stop. This includes cervical exams !

Know your rights and use your voice to exercise them, beautiful mama.

This is a long shot but does anyone happen to have information about the doula program at Coffee Creek? I know a bill was passed fairly recently that requires CCCF to have a doula program for pregnant and postpartum women in their custody, but I'm having trouble finding any real information about it. I managed to find the org that DOC says they are (were?) negotiating a contract with, but when I looked up their certified prison doulas none are listed in the state of Oregon.

If anyone has info related to this I'd super appreciate it!!
