Testimonial for Donna Westcott
Donna was extremely helpful and supportive in the weeks leading up to delivery when I was having lots of contractions and other issues and she was amazing during labor and delivery. She was also very understanding and accomodating to any needs I had that were related to Sensory Processing Disorder. I was attempting VBAC and Donna helped me think deeply about my birth and helped me create a birth plan that I felt good about and that my OB liked. She was able to help me cope with labor longer than I ever thought I could and helped me stay informed so that I could make the best decisions even though it can be difficult in labor. Unfortunatley, things didn't go the way I wanted and I had to have a repeat cesarean but Donna made that birth the best birth it could be. She made sure the doctor was aware of the c-section part of my birth plan and had the nurse on board with the plan as well. In fact, Donna was very good at establishing rapport with all of the hospital staff which really helped during labor and delivery. I also appreciate how she helped my husband be a better birth partner and took care of so many details so that he could focus on me, in fact, he was also very grateful to have her help. I didn't have a doula for my first birth and after having Donna's help with the second, I wouldn't do it any other way. I came out of this experience feeling empowered and I have no regrets about my birth and I have Donna to thank for that.
