Summary

This study looks at whether doulas with extra training in mental health support can help pregnant women in rural Montana feel more confident and less depressed. About 75 pregnant women will be split into three groups: one with a specially trained doula, one with a regular doula, and one with no doula. Researchers will track their feelings and well-being through surveys during pregnancy and up to six months after giving birth.
