Testimonial for Donna Rigert
I am SO blessed I found Donna! I originally narrowed my search to 5 doulas...then decided to interview 3... I LOVED Donna SO much that I cancelled my third interview! There was NO WAY anyone was going to be as warm, personable, caring, soulful and understanding as she was! And I had only spoken with her for a few hours...see that's the thing with Donna, she makes you feel like you have been friends for many many years right away...and it's GENUINE! She came to our home twice before the baby for fun discussions and sent me tips in email all the time! I friended her on FB because she WAS a good friend and she would see my status updates and send me tips on dealing with whatever I was experiencing :) SO SWEET!!!
I called Donna when I was at the hospital and she came over RIGHT away (well I was there like 12 hours before that, and we texted all the time...but I didin't really need support until the labor REALLY kicked in) and she was right there! What I loved aobut her is that when you're in the throws of labor, you don't want to worry if you are being mean or rude or how someone is taking things...Donna understood that... If I didn't like something she was trying I let her know, and that was okay! That was SUPER important to me... She actually helped my husband in the delivery too...explaining what was happening etc so I didn't have to!!!
I would give her a big fat A!!!! And I will DEFINATELY be using her with more kids!!!!
She also came over afterwords and we chatted about the hardships of the first month, she looked at my latch...it was great to have someone to talk to after being SO COOPED UP with the baby!!
So I recommend her 10000%!!!!!!!
