What is a doula?
Correct answer: A trained professional who assists during pregnancy and labor
Nexus 6
Similar to a midwife?

Nexus 6, a midwife delivers pre-natal care, delivers the baby, and provides post-delivery care for normal childbirth. A doula provides support to mom and family during and after the birth process.

They're similar (I did the training) but they can't provide any medical intervention

Nexus 6, no way similar. A midwife has a post graduate degree. A doula likes to assist by supporting women, but a midwife is more equipped to deal with delivery of baby AND PLACENTA.

Tres, midwives carry out post natal care too; well they do in here in the UK
