From the first conversation I had with Adde, I felt a real connection with her. As a mom herself, she brought a depth of understanding to the entire journey – pregnancy, birth, and those precious early days of parenthood – that I truly valued.
Knowing my due date was close to her planned family vacation, we openly discussed having a backup doula in place before we even agreed to work together.
Our two prenatal meetings were so helpful. Adde took the time to really get to know my husband and me, understand our hopes for the birth, and address any concerns. It felt like we were building a strong team. And knowing she was just a text away for any questions or worries in between was a huge comfort.
When my water broke, Adde was away, but she was immediately responsive, helping me confirm what was happening and connecting me with our fantastic backup doula, Hannah. Even from afar, Adde helped me with different exercises to help get baby properly into postion, was in contact with my husabnd during triage, and was on the phone with me when I was admitted into my room in the hospital. Everything unfolded so smoothly, and having doula support – especially Hannah there in person – was invaluable.
Adde followed up just a few days later with a visit, sharing helpful tips for our gassy newborn. She continued to be a supportive resource in the weeks that followed as we settled into our new family life.
I would do it all over again with Adde if I have the chance. ;)
