Testimonial for Julie Pichon
My husband and I had a wonderful doula experience with Julie! She is extremely knowledgeable, and we enjoyed getting to know her before our birth. She had great advice on what to pack for the hospital, exercises to prepare for labor, and relaxation exercises to practice at home. We talked a lot in the days leading up to our birth, and she was very good at staying in touch. The night of our birth I was hesitant to leave for the hospital, thinking that it might be false labor. Her encouragement and support helped me to have confidence that it was really time. And good thing, we arrived just a couple hours before baby did! I tend to birth quickly, and Julie was wonderful at stressing this with the nurses. So that even though I wasn't dilating quickly they still prepared for baby's birth. So when I went from 3 cm dilation at 1am to baby in arms at 2:02am, everyone was as ready as they could be. It was the natural birth we had worked for, and Julie was a great support every step of the way. She met with us afterwards and asked if there was anything we would have done differently. We told her no, and it's true. It was the natural, loving birth that we had envisioned, and her prescence was an incredible addition to it.
