Testimonial for Kim O'Rourke

Kim was amazing and I couldn't imagine going through my labor without her. From our first phone call I knew she was someone special and a necessary part of my delivery team.  She was so knowledgeable, experienced, and supportive of my birth goals.  At our second meeting we discussed and solidified my full birth plan.  This meant that when the day came there was no guesswork.  Unfortunately I had to be induced early and was only 0.5 cm dilated.  Kim guided me through the decision on whether to induce (never pressuring or imposing) she was a perfect sounding board.  When I finally decided to proceed with induction she was available by phone for all my questions.  Then it was time for the pitocin aka the real pain and she was right there by my side.  My labor span three days from induction to delivery.  This included four hours of pushing.   Kim was there to hold my hand and guide me through it all.  It must have been over 20 hours of Kim there with me. I had my mom and husband with me but I couldn't have done it without Kim.  She was the force that guided me to dig deeper when I thought I had nothing more to give.  She knows exactly what's coming, what to ask for, and all the hospital staff.  What some might not appreciate is that even though you have a nurse... they have other patients and there are times that you are in grueling pain and would otherwise be alone.  Kim made sure I was comfortable.  Through long and painful I had the most beautiful delivery.  And a perfectly healthy baby and bonus (no tears!).  I'm so glad I hired Kim.  It was the best decision I made.  God willing I have more children and I will certainly have her there with my future births.
