About this product

Product Information

Scholars turn to reproduction for its ability to illuminate the practices involved with negotiating personhood for the unborn, the newborn, and the already-existing family members, community members, and the nation. The scholarship in this volume draws attention to doula work as intimate and relational while highlighting the way boundaries are created, maintained, challenged, and transformed. Intimate labour as a theoretical construct provides a way to think about the kind of care doulas offer women across the reproductive spectrum. Doulas negotiate boundaries and often blur the divisions between communities and across public and private spheres in their practice of intimate labour. This book weaves together three main threads: doulas and mothers, doulas and their community, and finally, doulas and institutions. The lived experience of doulas illustrates the interlacing relationships among all three of these threads. The essays in this collection offer a unique perspective on doulas by bringing together voices that represent the full spectrum of doula work, including the viewpoints of birth, postpartum, abortion, community based, adoption, prison, and radical doulas. We privilege this broad representation of doula experiences to emphasize the importance of a multi-vocal framing of the doula experience. As doulas move between worlds and learn to live in liminal spaces, they occupy space that allows them to generate new cultural narratives about birthing bodies.

?Doulas and Intimate Labour: Boundaries, Bodies and Birth is a comprehensive compendium of scholarly contributions from a diverse group of doulas, researchers and midwives. This book provides insight, clarification, direction, and considerations, for present and future growth of the doula model of care. This model of care has been, and will continue to be, a powerful conduit for changes in childbirth, and maternity support and care. Highly recommended for required reading in nursing courses, women?s studies, doula programs, and midwifery training. An outstanding contribution to the literature!??Susan K. Grabia, Faculty Associate, UoW, School of Nursing, Madison, WIThis is a brilliant book which any midwife or student midwife would learn from and enjoy reading. It is ironic that it is not written for midwives but for doulas. This is partly because it comes from Canada where midwives are few but also because it addresses the intimate care which is transformative but which is steadily being squeezed out of midwifery by mounting bureaucracy and technology. It is an acknowledgement of the need for such care that the book was funded by the government of Canada.The value of continuity of carer and the importance of relationships and ?relational work? underpin all the chapters. Relationships with mothers, the community and with institutions are examined together with relationships between those working around birth. All the chapters focus on the individual mother?s journey and how she can be ?empowered not overpowered?. The needs of vulnerable groups, such as relinquishing mothers and prisoners, are addressed with respect. The facilitation of transformation and grief are also are examined.The caregiver?s own experience is explored and the development of ?expertise of the self? as in dealing with our own ?birth baggage?, so we are free to hold safe space for mothers. There is a perceptive chapter on ?story-centred care? and the need for ?wise witnesses? and ?narrative humility?. The final chapters focus on the positive potential for change within truly woman centred care, an aim which unites midwives and doulas.?Mavis Kirkham

The item is as described and works! I'm very happy with my purchase and definitly reccomend this seller as I could easily see myself buying from them again. The only qualm I have is that they sent it in a thin cardboard/paper envelope that offered no water proofing of any kind, luckily the item arrived with no damage but the cd itself was loose in the case and the case was itself loose in this cardboar paper envelope with no additional padding or protection. Could work on packing stuff better.

The item is fine but the packaging is terrible considering how far it travelled. Also they are listed as Us seller but it’s shipping for the Uk - this is why it took weeks for me to get the item. If I would have known before that it would take that long I would be as upset as I am now. When I reached out to them they did not mention it and I found out on my own. I reached out because I was concerned that it had been a week and no movement.
