Testimonial for Sara Krivanec, CD(DTI), CLC, CCLS
I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience working with Sara! When we met her, we knew she was a perfect fit for us. Her easy, kind manner made my husband and I feel at ease immediately. Plus, she REALLY knows her stuff!
We learned so much from Sara during our prenatal visits. Knowing that I was unable to have an epidural for medical reasons, I was concerned about and scared of labor. I wondered if I could handle the pain. I worried about the possibility of a c-section. Sara respected my concerns while assuring me that I COULD do it, and that I would. My husband learned so much from her, too. She really prepared him for what to expect.
When my water broke, I texted Sara. It was just after midnight, and she was over the moon for me. She texted me back: "Yay, you're gonna have a baby!" We all thought I'd get some rest and regroup in the morning. When things started moving much more quickly than we had expected, my husband was in constant contact with Sara. She made suggestions for things to try, which he relayed to me, and she helped him recognize what to look for as I moved quickly through the stages of labor. At one point, she called us so she could hear me have contractions. We agreed that I should call the hospital again and have my midwife help me make a decision. When we headed to the hospital (only 4 hours after my water broke), Sara met us there.
In the hospital, Sara was so supportive. She has a way about her that's hard to describe--but it's perfect! She was there for both me and my husband. She made sure I always had a washcloth for my forehead, helped me try different positions in the tub, and even took pictures with my phone during all the critical moments.
At our postpartum visit and afterward, Sara was reassuring and knowledgeable as always.
Bottom line: I can't imagine going through this experience without Sara! She is one of the best choices we made during my pregnancy.
