Testimonial for Amanda Partain
My husband and I had the privilege of having Amanda as our Doula for the birth of our second son. My first birth experience had not gone as planned – I was diagnosed with preeclampsia, and ended up having an emergency C-section. When I got pregnant with my second child, I wanted to go for a VBAC and that is when I found Amanda.
From the start, Amanda was an invaluable resource and calming presence. During our two prenatal visits I was able to bounce ideas off of her and get advice on how to prepare for my VBAC. During labor, her presence made the experience so much less stressful despite things not going to plan (as they often never do with birth)! Even though I did not get the VBAC I planned, I can say that we tried everything we could as a team to make it successful, which is all I wanted out of my second birth experience. She stayed with us through the entire process, including my emergency c-section which took much longer than expected. She stayed by my side when my husband went with our son to the special care unit and even came with me to the recovery room. During labor, one of my L&D nurses told me Amanda was one of the best doulas she has ever worked with.
Having gone through birth with Amanda’s support, my husband and I both agree – we cannot imagine going through this process without her and are forever grateful we had her as part of our birth team.
