when did you organise your midwife/doula?

i saw my doula before getting pregnant, then went ahead at around 8 weeks and booked her!

I booked my doula at about 10-12 weeks.

I booked in with our doula at around 20 weeks, and she told me then I was quite organised as alot of women don't contact her until much closer to the birth. Only a couple of weeks ago she said she had been contacted by several women wanting to book with EDD's close to mine but she knocked them back due to having our birth pencilled in.

I got a doula at 38 weeks...it was a last minute decision LOL
the best decision we ever made mind you! Squeezed in 1 visit and lots of calls/emails and DS was born a week later. Next baby I'll be booking her in straight away.
