Doula: worth it or not?
The prices I'm getting quoted are like $1000-1200. Seems a steep price to pay for assistance from someone who can't actually give me drugs or anything, but I've never done this before (childbirth, not posting) and the studies make hiring a doula seem like a good idea (fewer interventions, etc.).
Given that this board is filled with snarky, left-brained people like me, I'm hoping for more useful answers than are to be found on the standard pregnancy chat boards.
Thanks in advance.

My friend's wife had a doula and I have no idea what she did, but they both said that the doula was extremely helpful. fwiw.
oh. If you like I can find out what exactly she did that was helpful.
