Dou-Bro'z

 Dou-Bro'z was created in 2018 to help new fathers learn the intricacies of childbirth, the how’s and whys of taking care of a newborn. We teach the men about the chemical changes that occur in our bodies and what effects her hormones have on us. We show men the importance of being there for the mother (whether in a relationship with her or not) and your unborn child. We discuss how stress on the mother affects their unborn child. There is also a section in the prenatal portion that is called QUEEN TIME that was designed to alleviate unnecessary stress. Postnatal we show the men how to swaddle, change, hold and proper feeding technics for the newborn as well as understanding your babies cries (pitch, tone, frequency, length) which is crucial because our research has shown that new fathers (especially the ones with not support system) tend to get frustrated when their newborn is crying and they can’t sooth or stop the crying. We are also there as a support system for the father, sharing our knowledge as trained Postpartum Doulas. We work hand in hand with the Doula assigned to the mother if all parties are in agreement.
