Pamela is forever in our hearts and apart of our family. Present for the most pivotal day of our lives, she played a key role on the journey as our daughter came earthside.
She instintively knew the appropriate massage/touch techniques to put my mind at ease, thereby allowing my body to do the work it already knew how to do. She was also extremely helpful in suggesting different laboring positions to make baby move and allow for an easier entry into the world. More than anything, her gentle yet reassuring presence served as a guide during the hardest experience of my life. Her words of encouragement are what kept me going during my moments of doubt. When I wanted to give up from sheer exhaustion, I remember her saying, "You can do this... Tell that baby to come out.." And shortly after, my daughter was born.
Because of my wonderful birth experience I feel transformed and empowered as a woman, making the transition into motherhood much smoother and more peaceful. Words could never describe how grateful we are that Pamela was there during the birth, as well as during pregnancy and postpartum. She understands that birth is sacred and honors the incredible changes, challenges and joys that comes with this special time in life.
So much love in our hearts...
