Testimonial for Ále Johnson

Àle is the reason I didn’t end up with a c-section. I went into labor with a birth plan, but once you’re actually in it, following that plan becomes almost impossible. Labor does something to your brain—you’re exhausted, vulnerable, and very suggestive. In that state, it’s easy for doctors or midwives to recommend interventions you originally didn’t want, and you might agree just to get through it. Àle was my voice when I couldn’t be. She fought for what I wanted every step of the way, making sure my wishes were respected. She stayed with me for all three days of my labor (crazy) —never leaving my side—and was truly an angel in the room. I would recommend her a thousand times over. And if you’re on the fence about whether you need a doula or not .. trust me, you do. I’m usually someone who can advocate hard and long for myself, but labor is a completely different ball game. Having an experienced, compassionate, and fierce doula like Àle made all the difference! Thank you Àle, I am forever grateful for you. I love you! Xx -Salma
