I decided to go for a natural birth and the best thing I did to support that decision was enlist Jen Edmonds as my doula. I didn't know exactly what that would entail and wasn't 100% sold on even "needing" a doula but her knowledge and ability to implement massage, breathing techniques, and her calming presence set the whole tone for my labor & delivery. Now that may seem a bit much, but when I hit transition and thought I was going to die having Jen there completely focused on me (while the midwives took vitals, my husband talked with my mom) was beyond words. I stared into her eyes begging for help without saying a word, and she understood and spoke back with and without words that my body could do it. She gave me her strength and energy to surrender to my body through the pain. I HIGHLY RECCOMEND JEN EDMONDS for any birth: natural, medical, c-section. I PROMISE you're money will not be wasted! Thank you, Jen!
