"Childbirth is an experience in a woman's life that holds the power to transform her forever. Passing through those powerful gates - in her own way - remembering all the generations of women who walk with her ... She is never alone." - Suzanne Arms "Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers - strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength." - Barbara Katz-Rothman "If a doula were a drug, it would be unethical not to use it." -Dr. Marshall Klaus "If you don't know your options, you don't have any." - Diana Korte and Roberta Scaer A Good Birth, A Safe Birth "My husband (partner) is my left hand and my doula is my right." - from Doulas Making a Difference "We have a secret in our culture, and it’s not that birth is painful; it’s that women are strong." — Laura Stavoe Harm “…if you want to know where a woman’s true power lies, look to those primal experiences we’ve been taught to fear…the very same experiences the culture has taught us to distance ourselves from as much as possible, often by medicalizing them so that we are barely conscious of them anymore. Labor and birth rank right up there as experiences that put women in touch with their feminine power…” -Christiane Northrup
