Labour support also increases satisfaction and the chance of a spontaneous vaginal birth. Continuous support may also shorten labour and decrease the use of Pitocin (Syntocinon). Although continuous support can also be offered by birth partners, midwives, nurses, or even some physicians, research has shown that with some outcomes, doulas have a stronger effect than other types of support persons.
