Black patients and Birth Doula
Black birth doulas: continuous labor support. Continuous labor support is associated with 39 percent lower C-section rates, critical for Black birthing people.
A Cochrane review of continuous labor support found a 39 percent lower C-section rate, fewer instrumental deliveries, shorter labors, and better satisfaction with birth experience. For Black birthing people, who face 3 times higher maternal mortality (CDC) and 36 percent national C-section rates, a doula functions as both emotional advocate and clinical translator during labor. Medicaid is now covering doula care in a growing number of states, including CA, NY, NJ, VA, MD, and others.
