Testimonial for Birth You Desire ® LLC
Expecting twins and wanting a natural childbirth, it was critical that I had the right doula on my team. Ursula could not have been more of a perfect choice. In our consultations leading up to my due date, Ursula gave me advice that I believe resulted in the shift of Baby A from breech to vertex at week 36. Urusla also sends her moms helpful articles and other support tips over email regularly to help thorughout pregnancy and maintain strong lines of communciation leading up to labor and delivery. I was induced at 39 weeks and 4 days and was apprehensive about what the introduction of Pitocin would mean for my desire of an unmedicated childbirth. Ursula turned that desire into a reality, using a variety of techniques to help me effectively manage the increasing intensity of contractions. Even though the hospital where I delivered is not well known for welcoming doulas, each nurse assigned to us was won over by Ursula's positive energy. More importantly, I felt supported and empowered. I am a person who likes (needs?) to be in control. While I knew I couldn't control much of labor and delivery, I was reassured that I had someone on my team who could help drive the process in a way that I had envisioned and would support me to the fullest extent of her ability. Ursula's outstanding support also extended past my delivery date. Even though she had three back-to-back births, Urusla was at our home offering her guidance and encouragement just a few days after we brought home our beautiful twins. Ursula genuinely cares so much about her moms and babies; she was a godsend and I can't recommend her enthusiastically enough!
