Testimonial for Heather Pound -DONA, Hypnobirthing, Photography

Some people are afraid of snakes. For me, one of my biggest fears was child birth. I was scared about the pain, and about feeling vulnerable etc. I knew I was going to need some extra support to help me through the process once my husband and I found out we were pregnant. We interviewed a couple different Doulas, but didn't find "the one" until we met Heather. The first time we met her we knew she was going to be perfect for us. Heather has a wonderfully warm energy about her. She had several years of experience helping other women, and my goodness she is so passionate about supporting women through their birthing experience. One of the things I loved about Heather was that she said over and over again that she wanted me to have the birthing experience that I wanted, and didn't try to push any ideas or opinions on me. I knew I wanted an epidural and she was very supportive of that- I never once felt like she was judging me.My husband and I had several questions about the whole process and she was very knowledgeable. When the moment of glory came, Heather proved to be a game changer for us. She taught us hip presses that made the contractions much more manageable, and was able to guide me through a questionable moment while in labor. Because of Heather, I was able to have the vaginal birth (with minimal pain) that I had hoped for. Thank you Heather!!! If we have another baby, your better believe I want Heather by my side!!
