Testimonial for Danielle Lugrand, CPE, LCCE, CLC, AdvCD/AdvPCD(DONA)
I recently had the joy of bringing my second child into this world. If I am blessed with a third, I will, if humanly possible have Danielle at that birth, just as she was throughout the entire pregnancy, labor and delivery of my first two. Here are the main things that I feel make my loved doula, Danielle, a must-have if you are pregnant!
1. Her prenatal care is AMAZING. My husband and I loved how she worked with US to help US understand what was going on each step of the way, and how WE could work together towards a healthy labor and birth. She truly understood that there were TWO people having a baby. 2. I benefited first-hand from her extensive training and years of experience in supporting and promoting healthy pregnancies, labors and deliveries. We worked together to achieve a healthy pregnancy using nutrition, exercise, homeopaths, natural alternatives, massage and many other things. She was ALWAYS available to address questions or concerns. Through the use of tens, chiropractic care (she is on a texting basis with almost anyone you could need throughout your pregnancy) and stretches, she helped me almost eliminate hip pain. Close to my estimated due date, we discovered my babies were breech. She helped me work with my body and babies, to turn them from their breech positions and into an optimal position for laboring. 3. Her care during labor will BLOW YOU AWAY! I’ve got about 48 hours of total labor experience with Danielle. With Danielle's help, both of my labors were healthy, calm and satisfying experiences. Sadly, many laboring mothers experience fear or anxiety during labor because they don't understand what their body is doing. Danielle eliminates that and helps you understand each part of the labor and how you can work with your body to achieve pain relief, progression of labor and ultimately a beautiful experience of bringing a precious life into this world. I highly recommend a doula, specifically, Danielle!
