We had both a doula and a midwife at our homebirth, and it was invaluable having both. I would recommend that you all meet together to ensure that everyone agrees on how things will work. Our doula and midwife worked wonderfully as a team and I would certainly do the same again next time. We had a long labour so having both meant one could nap while the other stayed with us. It is also more affordable than having two midwifes present.

Enjoy your pregnancy and your birth. Good Luck!
