Im not saying there is no benefit to having a Doula.

I do want a straight forward answer to the question of "If its on the birth plan & its not being followed for no good reason, then can & will a Doula step & say something?"

Thats all I want to know. I thought the job was to be the voice. In the OP the poster said she was being told of her progression when she had it in her birth plan not to be told, neither her DH or Doula stood up & said something. Now I can accept DH not saying anything but this is where I thought the Doula comes in & speaks up. She knew what was in the birth plan, She should have been with it enough to point it out.
Am I wrong?

FJ-
as I said before ticklish had a very disappointing birth happening and I really feel for her. It must be frustrating, having hired a Doula and still feeling left alone.

As a Doula you should step in, but as Kelly said, we cannot interfere and tell the OB or MW to do or not do their job.
What we can do is remind DH or yourself about your birthplan and what Ob/MW try to do, which might be NOT part of your birthplan.
We can make sure our clients understand whats happening, so the mother and her partner are either happy to continue with their birthplan, regardless what the OB/MW offer OR they want to take the intervention.
