We contacted Alyssa to be our birth Doula just about a month or less before the due date for my daughter. Our girl was breech, and we'd been having a terrible time finding support from our OB practice. We changed hospitals and contacted Alyssa. She immediately jumped into action to help us get more comfortable and secure with the birth. We went for a breech birth with a supportive hospital and doctor team. Alyssa was with us every step of the way, from a midnight water break to a 30 hour labor. At the climax of pushing, my wife felt sudden pain, and while the doctors wanted to keep going, Alyssa said there was something wrong and that we should pivot to a C Section. They did, and discovered that my wife was hemorrhaging from a rupture. Luckily, the my wife and daughter both survived and are thriving now. Without her intervention, I am terrified to think of what may have happened. She saved my wife's and my daughters lives. Alyssa has continued to be amazing support for us post partum. I'd recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a deeply caring, responsive, intuitive, funny, and overall excellent doula.
