This year it was more evident than most what the cost of being a doula entails. The hardest part of being a doula is the on call time. You begin to officially be on call from the beginning of a client’s 38th week through her 42nd week. The being on call means your life revolves around being ready for the phone call that the mom to be needs you. It means that the theatre tickets, the concert, the party, all of those things are not prioritized over the mom in need.
