Birth records

Every birth you attend, on the record

The Record Birth Details form in DoulaFlow, with the number of babies, gender, outcome, birth date and time, gestational age filled in from the due date, baby weight and length, labor start, location and delivery type

How many births have you actually attended?

Most doulas can only guess. The details live in notebooks, texts and memory, so your rates, your website and your own sense of the work rest on a rough number.

The record

One form for the whole birth

Record the baby, the birth story, interventions, early postpartum and your support on the client's record. Gestational age fills in from her due date, and labor length and support time work themselves out from the times you enter.

  • Twins and more. Gender and outcome for each baby.
  • Where it happened. Hospital, home or birth center, city and delivery type.
  • Your own notes on the birth and the outcome.
From your backup

Your backup can record it for you

When your backup attends a birth, her packet includes a birth details form. Her answers save as she goes, and you accept them into your client's record.

  • No account for her. The form opens from her email.
  • A printable copy for a hospital with no signal.

Birth outcomes

Your births, added up

Insights turns your records into your own numbers: total births, boys, girls and twins, average labor length and average time with clients, plus births by month, delivery type and location type.

  • Past clients still count. Completed clients stay in your totals; deleted ones drop out.
  • In your free trial. Birth outcomes are not locked.

After a loss

Recorded with care

Outcomes include stillbirth, miscarriage and a plain Pregnancy ended. Once a loss is recorded, her due date leaves your calendar, her portal drops the pregnancy content, and she is never moved to On Call.

Common questions

Can I import births I recorded somewhere else?

Yes. Birth columns in a CSV import, such as birth date, weight, length, location and outcome, create a birth record for each client. DoulaFlow recognizes eDoula's baby weights and birth outcomes.

Does recording a birth change the client's stage?

No. You move her to Postpartum yourself. Recording the birth stops her gestational age and clears the past due item on Home.

Can my client see her birth record?

No. Birth records are part of your records and do not appear in the client portal.

Are birth outcomes in Insights part of the free trial?

Yes. Birth outcomes and client activity are open during the free trial. Business health, which covers revenue, is part of paid plans.

Can I record twins?

Yes. Set the number of babies, then choose a gender and an outcome for each baby.
