After having a traumatic first birth, I began to panic that it would happen again with my second. Since I was wanting a natural and completely different experience and recovery I made the decision to hire a Doula.
Christa was great support during my week of false labor and when I went to the hospital with what I thought was still false labor, Christa was promptly there anyways. I ended up having some complications with my labor and was not allowed to leave the bed. Even though I could not get in different positions like I had hoped during the birth, Christa was able to help me with my pain management, my extreme emotions, and help me understand what was happening. Not only did she stay calm and supportive she was able to show my husband and mom how they could help aswell. After an intense labor, I am happy Christa was on top of everything and able to be there with us. I would love to have her with us again next time around!
