Jenny is a rockstar of a doula! I had a long, long, LONG labor, and to top it all off, it was a VBAC. I gave birth with the GW midwives, amd was at the hospital almost 48 hours before my daughter was finally born. Things didn't go exactly as I hoped (I mean, who hopes to be in labor for multiple days, right?) and I ended up using pitocin and an epidural. Jenny was so supportive of me as I made these decisions. My baby was really high up despite the long labor, and not only did she help me with all kinds of techniques to get the baby moving down, she also sought out even more advice from the doula community about what else she could do to help me. I felt empowered and in charge when I decided to move forward with interventions I hadn't originally wanted. It was a night and day difference to my previous birth. Jenny stayed with us almost the entire time we were at the hospital, until we asked her to go home and get some rest. She never wavered in her support; she never made me feel like she doubted my ability to give birth. Jenny's support was invaluable, and I highly recommend her.
