Would like to know the hospital policy for doulas. Can the doula and husband accompany the mother?

I believe you are allowed to have a doula and your husband. But they need to have a vaccination card. A negative PCR might be enough for your husband.

I wish I knew the answer. For surgery, I was allowed one person in a waiting room on a different floor, who wasn't able to see me till I was released, couldn't even see me in recovery, and I was there 12hrs instead of yhr planned 4, so person waiting on me was frantically calling recovery and I could hear the nurses giving him bad info - I was still in the OR, or I'd been discharged, or the best - they had no patient by my name. Sooo, my advice, definitely call, and be specific you'd like doula and husband with you. I'm not knocking the surgery, that went well, just the communications were lacking at best, btwn recovery and waiting room. And good luck and congrats!
