Testimonial for DC Birth Doulas, LLC
After doing a lot of searching, my husband and I finally settled on going with DC Birth Doulas for the birth of our son. We attended their Meet the Doulas session and knew they were right for us. They struck the perfect balance of encouraging a natural birth while being realistic enough to know that things won't always go as planned. I ended up having some complications that caused me to be induced and be on bed rest in the hospital. Throughout this process I was in constant text and phone communication with the doula on call (with Sarah or Amy filling in the blanks that the doctors were to busy to), until I was moved to LDR at which point Amy came in person. Amy stayed with my husband and I overnight through a long and difficult labor, and Amy coached me through pushing. Amy's coaching was so effective that the doctor had to tell me to stop pushing because I was one push away from delivering and he wasn't ready yet! Amy's gentle care and guidance helped us through a very challenging and at times scary labor. My husband and I agree that hiring a doula, specifically DC Birth Doulas, was the best decision we could have made. We can't recommend Amy and DC Birth Doulas enough!
