Testimonial for Justine Temke, Doula, placenta encapsulation

My son just turned six month and looking back to the moments of his birth, having just as my doula was the greatest things that happened at during my labor and the delivery. My husband and I was were both completely unexperienced with birth since we didn’t have any kid before. We felt unprepared and nervous about everything that was related to the birth. And then we got to know Justine. From the first day we connected with her, she was able to give us the assurance that everything will be fine. She shared her personal experience with us, and it was clear to us that she knew what she was talking about. With her assistance, we planned everything for the D day. Two week before the expected delivery day, I broke my waters with no warning signs and the labor started right away. Neither my husband nor I were prepared for that, at that moment. He was lost, he didn’t know what to do. He called 911 and after making sure that I was at the hospital, he called Justine. Justine came at the birth center in less than one hour and, she really assisted me at each single second. She knew at each instant what I needed and what could help facilitate my labor. She encouraged my husband and was continuously present without being invasive. Would Justine there, I am not sure if I would have the same great birth experience, even with another doula. Even after the birth, Justine kept offering her experienced help to make sure that both Baby, Dad and I are fine. She visited us at the hospital and a home and gave us some pieces of advice that we are still using today to with our son. We are a happy family, and Justine has something to do with that. Thank you Justine.
