Testimonial for Tracy Abney
I contacted Tracy Abney and met with her during my first trimester. I was pursuing a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarian) and knew that having a doula would increase my chances of success. I like that she has personal and professional experience with VBACs. I knew immediately that Tracy's personality was compatible with mine. I like that she is straight forward, friendly, and genuine. I'm happy I ended up contacting her early on because she became imperative to me during my pregnancy. She was always available for questions and advice throughout my whole pregnancy. I ended up switching to an out of town OB and she was still willing and excited to come along! We happily paid her for her additional travel time. It was well worth the investment having someone local that would be a support person when we were also out of town. She came to the hospital armed with supplies, knowledge, and a wonderful demeanor. When I'm in pain I like to be alone and not touched. Tracy was still able to help me tremendously by making sure I stayed in control of my body. She would notice when I started to get overwhelmed and was capable of bringing me back in control by helping me focus on my breathing. I loved having her support throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum times. Tracy was just as helpful for my husband. He loved having someone there that was educated in birth that was also able to dedicate their time to us during the entire labor and delivery. I can't say enough good things about Tracy as a doula and a person. I 100% think every woman should have a doula! Please put Tracy on your list to interview!
