Testimonial for Odile Penet, CD(DONA), LCCE, PES

Odile Penet is a very special woman,  she is kind,  empathetic, hilarious,  deep,  nurturing and full of positive energy.   In short- she is everything you could want in a doula!   We just love her!   Like many women,  I wanted as natural a birth as I could achieve. Unfortunately, I developed Preeclampsia and so it was out of my hands.  I had to be induced and given magnesium to prevent complications.   Had Odile not been there,  had she not been there with my husband and I.. Well,  I think I might of had an anxiety attack or two because I felt very out of control of my birth interventions.. .  BECAUSE of Odile I had a BEAUTIFUL BIRTH (with as few interventions as was possible due to my scary circumstances)  I was actually extremely calm during my entire birth because of Odile and my loving husband and my dear mother!  the moment my daughter was born was the highest, most euphoric, most beautiful moment of my life!   I do think that the way your child is born does impact your bond- at least at first and I was one of those lucky mothers to feel only overwhelming love when my daughter was born! I'M SO GRATEFUL FOR THAT! :)   Odile is a treasure and we want her to be at all of our children's births,  she started out as our Doula but is now our friend.  <3
