Testimonial for Heather Karlson (DONA)
We used Heather for my fourth birth, and it was a wonderful experience.
My first two births were c-sections, and my third birth was a VBA2C. I used a doula with my third birth, and while I liked having a doula, I didn't feel like I connected well with the one I used. For my fourth birth, I knew I wanted to try someone new.
Heather was recommended to me by some friends. One friend said, "If you use Heather, you WILL have a non-medicated birth!" At the time, I had my doubts. Little did I know how amazingly helpful Heather would be! Heather joined us at home as we labored, and then we headed to the hospital. When we arrived, I measured 8cm. I had no idea I could manage labor so well, and it was all thanks to Heather! Her massage and aromatherapy techniques were very relaxing and helpful, as was her encouragement to do things like squatting when a contraction came--ouch! Heather was so supportive, calm, and experienced. She is easy to like and get along with! I can’t imagine having another baby without her supporting me as my doula!
