Testimonial for Stacey Tweedle CD/PCD (DONA) Postpartum Doula
I found Stacey on Instagram when I was looking for a doula in Calgary with special VBac training. Stacey met the criteria so I eagerly contacted her when I was early in my pregnancy. She enthusiasticaly agreed to take me on as a client and I was thrilled. Sadly a few weeks later my pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. Stacey was very kind and supportive and 2 months later when I was pregnant again, she shared in my joy and we began the journey together once again. She was easy to get in touch with and her Instagram presence helped me feel like I was able to get to know her a little better. When labor started she was quick to answer text messages and came to our house when we asked her to. She helped me make the call when to go to the hospital since she knew we wanted a hospital birth. It was a long labor with very slow progression. Stacey was very well informed with Spinning Babies techniques and encouraged me to get into positions that were challenging but were designed to help get our baby into position. Unfortunately our labor ended in c section because I was exhausted from days of intense prodromal labor and didn't progress beyond a certain point. Stacey was there and made sure I left no stone unturned when it came to things we could do to help baby along, but a vaginal birth just wasn't in the cards for us. She was a great advocate for the gentle cesarian we had. As soon as we pivoted to the c-section, she didn't skip a beat and made sure we knew our options for things like skin to skin after delivery, dropping the curtain as soon as baby came out and even having music playing in the OR. It was helpful to have her there to help us navigate labor positions and know all our options. We are grateful to her.
