Testimonial for Janine Mason
Before moving to Colorado a year ago and becoming pregnant, neither my husband nor I even knew what a doula or midwife was. After attending prenatal yoga and learning the scene of the birthing world I thought that I could benefit from having a female (non-family member) present at my birth. My husband and I were ambivalent about the idea, cost, and having a stranger present at your most vulnerable moments. I am so glad we decided to hire Janine and that she was available, she taught my prenatal yoga classes so I got to know her personality there, she met with our family twice pre-birth and followed up with us post. Janine was put on this earth to assist women through this amazing process, really and truly. I loved hearing her soft voice reassuring myself and husband throughout and having her gentle touch guide me was probably the best motivation. I know that my husband and I would have been lost in our hospital birth had Janine not been there, the nurses & doctor are in & out, they don't stay with you and when the contractions are hitting all the pre-birthing class information goes straight out the door & panic sets in. Janine helped guide us through positioning, movement, massage and breath which got us through. I highly recommend hiring Janine as your birth doula and we'll definitely use her again in the future (should we have another baby). ;)
We had a natural birth to a healthy 7lb 4oz baby girl :)
