Having Jae as my doula was the perfect decision I could have made. Even though we were long distance, she still supported me from afar, to where the distance didn't even make a difference. Video calls, phone calls, text messages, she made every effort to make sure I knew I was cared for even though she couldn't physically be present with me. We discussed birthing plans and expectations, and I honestly would have never thought to do that. This was my third child and not once did I ever think to have a birthing plan. She empowered me to make my own choices and to know I had options and I didn't have to automatically listen to what I was being told to by doctors and nurses. She sent me videos of different birthing positions and different ways to prepare myself for labor. She even sent me a birthing ball! She listened to all my complaints, all of my worries and concerns and made me feel... Like super woman. She was so reassuring, so comforting. While everyone else made everything about the baby, she always made sure to emphasize that I was just as, if not more important. No matter the time of day I reached out, she answered or got back to me quickly. Although she wasn't able to physically be here for the delivery, her presence was felt. I called her all throughout the delivery and she was with me, continuing to encourage and guide me. Making sure I knew I had a voice and reminded me to use it when I needed to.
After giving birth she continued to follow up, making sure I was okay while I struggled with some post parnum depression. She always provided solutions and options and a different perspective on things.
Im so glad a decided to use one of my longest standing friends as my doula. Jae maintained the perfect level of professionalism while still being my friend.
I can't thank her enough for all that she has done!
