Testimonial for Exie Buehler, CBD (CBI),Dip CBEd (CBI)
I found Exie through my search of looking for a prenatal massage therapist, I was only five weeks pregnant then. During my visit she explained to me that she also offer Doula Services. I didn't give it much thought then since I was in the early of my pregnancy. Months past and I will still going to Exie for prenatal massage and I was feeling a overhelmed about child birth. Exie provide the moral support that I needed. Me and my husband decided we do need a Doula. On my 39th week I went in for my doctors visit and I suffered from high blood pressure...they wanted to induce me if my blood pressure did not go down. This is one of the uncontrollable circumstances that Exie and I talked about. Although I was scared, I knew what was going on, and was able to make informed decision because of the information she provided me. I immediately notified her about the situation. Exie was just finishing up another birth that day and she told me that she would inform her backup. The backup doula contacted me and we all communicated with each other to make sure my status did not change. Well my bp never went down so I was admitted to the hospital. When the midwife check my cervix i was dilated to 1cm and calculated a bishop score of 5. She asked me if she can stripped my membrane, and inserted a catheder, I agreed. I really felt in control, once again this is because all of the information that was given to me about the birthing process from Exie. The next morning they gave me pitocin by then I was dilated 3 to 4 cm. I called Exie and she came right away. My bp was still high and the nurse informed me if my bp did not decrease I will have to stay in the bed. Long story short I deliver my baby boy that afternoon without any pain medication or being restricted to the bed. I knew I couldn't have done this if it was'nt for Exie. She provided the mental and physical support I needed. Thank you Exie!
