Birthwork refers to the wide range of emotional, physical, and informational support provided to individuals and families during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. This work is often carried out by doulas, midwives, lactation consultants, and other professionals who focus on empowering birthing people through compassionate care, advocacy, and education. Birthworkers play a vital role in promoting positive birth experiences and improving maternal and infant health outcomes.
