For my first pregnancy, I worked with a doula pair but when my labor went long (as they often do with first time moms) my doula had to swap out in the middle and I felt really disappointed and unstable with that shift. I found Sara for my second pregnancy and immediately knew I was in great hands. From when I first met Sara, she was super attentive, reassuring, and validating. I shared with her my disappointment about having to move from the birth center to the hospital for my first birth and she was so comforting and reassuring about how different each birth can be. She kept me grounded when I had my end-of-pregnancy anxieties about when my baby would come, and we laughed together the next morning when my water broke. Through labor I knew I could fully trust her as she guided me through movements and positions that would help bring my baby down and also get some rest. She helped my partner in finding different ways to support me, and also distracted me with little chats between surges. Ultimately, I had the birth experience I’d always pictured and felt a special kind of healing in bringing my second baby into the world! I definitely wouldn’t have had that experience without Sara by my side.
