I hired MaryBeth for a second time for the birth of my 6th child. She attended the birth of my 4th child, who was born at home. I decided to have a hospital birth this time for various reasons and I was very happy to have her support throughout that decision since she is very familiar with the care providers at Upper Chesapeake Medical Center and has worked with the midwives I chose to work with as well. I hired Susquehanna OBGYN midwives for my care. MaryBeth was very accessible throughout my pregnancy for my questions and concerns. She was reassuring and helped me think through the many concerns I had coming from a homebirth to a hospital birth. I wanted the birth experience to be as hands off as possible and without unnecessary interventions. During the birth she helped me with offering suggestions for position changes, and natural pain relief options. I labored in the shower, in the labor tub, and in and out of the hospital bed. She was a very calming presence for both me and my husband. I am so very happy that she was there to be a part of my last birth! MaryBeth took pictures for us in addition to supporting us at the birth. She stayed several hours after our little boy was born, and even had gifts for my other children, which was so special for them!! If you are looking for a doula to help you navigate your way through a hospital birth, you will not be disappointed with choosing MaryBeth. She is very experienced and knowledgeable!
