doula?

Does anyone have a doula? I'm considering one because it's a local free service and I'm a single mom.  I wonder if it would be beneficial at this point though because I'm already 34 weeks.

If it was free I'd be all over that. I'd love to have a doula but can't afford one along with my birth photographer. Do it do it do it!!! Having a doula reduces the chances of a c-section by up to 40% and reduces the need for pain medication even more than that. It would be wonderful. Absolutely don't turn it down.
