Sophia was my super empowering birth doula. She helped me achieve my goal of an unmedicated birth at a hospital. Early on, I told her that I wanted to have an unmedicated birth, and she was able to help me overcome my fears and anxieties about giving birth. She also did a great job of helping me prepare for outcomes other than my "plan A" birth plan. Sophia had some amazing phrases that helped me re-frame birth and labor including "productive pain," which helped me bear through the pain and discomfort of labor. She met with us before the due date to talk out issues (not even just about birth but also just life in general), she reminded me to slow down during pushing to prevent tearing, and she motivated me at each step of labor by reminding me of my goals. A few months after our son was born, we were having a really difficult time with him, and Sophia was quick to drive over and visit with us, which was immensely helpful. I would love to have Sophia as a birth doula again (and would absolutely hire her for postpartum support as well, we didn't find her early enough to do that this time around).
