Testimonial for Rebecca Turrigiano
Pregnant with my first child, I knew I did not want to have your "standard, typical" birth. I also did not feel like I had much support in my life for me feel as confident as I wanted to feel to achieve the type of birth I was wanting. Prior to meeting with Rebecca, I had done much research on doulas, and then started my search. Upon discussion with family members and friends, other than the babies father, not one of them was very supportive of my interest in a doula, nor did they much seem to be supportive or very knowledgeable with the type of birth I was wanting. This made me feel an even deeper need for a doula. We contacted three doulas, our first meeting was with Rebecca. Not even half way through the meeting, we knew we would not be meeting with anyone else. I felt the biggest weight lift off my shoulders, I was able to feel relief. Throughout the whole process Rebecca would check in on me to see how I was doing. Our prenatal meetings were very beneficial to me. We went over all possible outcomes that might arise and made decisions as appropriate, so that I would continuously feel in control. When the big day came, I think we were both surprised on how fast everything went, but she was ready. Through my intense & fast labor, she remained by my side, talking me through it, helping me remain as calm and in control as possible. Im forever thankful I did go through with a doula, and that I was blessed to have found Rebecca. I couldn't imagine having a child without a doula, and would love to have Rebecca again.
