Testimonial for Becky Rohrback CD(DONA) SBD
Even before becoming pregnant for the second time I knew I wanted to have a different birth experience than I had with the birth of my daughter. Throughout my second pregnancy I went about "convincing" my husband how beneficial a doula would be. After a couple of months my husband agreed and I contacted a doula program which, fortuantely for us, did not work out and lead us to hiring Becky.
After meeting for the first time I knew we would be in great hands with Becky. She is down to earth and easy to talk to. After that meeting we knew she was the one for us! Throughout the short remainder of my pregnancy Becky was there for emotional support throughout (I had a couple of weeks of on/off false labor). When the "real labor" day came at 3:30 in the morning Becky was there for us.
Throughout labor at the hospital she helped my husband and I advocate for what I wanted throughout the day. She also provided great conversation/distraction for both myself and my husband. With this being my second labor/delivery I thought I knew what I would be "feeling" but I was again wrong and Becky knew instinctively what I needed when it was time to push and again she advocated for my wishes to "labor down" which unfortunately did not happen.
Overall, my birth experience with my son was much more relaxing for many reasons but having Becky there was a huge part of that. I feel like I gained a friend out of the experience. Even after delivery Becky has kept in touch and provided emotional support as being a "new mother of two" presents it's own challenges.
If we would ever decide to grow our family even more Becky would definately be a part of the experience!
