Testimonial for Caroline Gatsch
I hired Caroline for my second birth. My first had been a bit rough and I thought a little extra support would go a long way. Not long after hiring Caroline, we'd barely had time to get to know each other, everything hit the fan with my pregnancy. At 33weeks I was in the hospital and incredibly ill. I had a servere form of pre-eclampsia known as HELLP Syndrome.
I knew relatively what it was and that it was bad...but my husband was left confused, upset, worried, and trying to figure out why they were delivering the baby so early and what was wrong. Caroline helped him understand everything that was going on, and still managed to help me cope with all the medical things. Everything had gone so very wrong compared to what I had imagined that birth to be. Caroline was a great comfort to us as. Through all the craziness, she was wonderful and supportive and all we could have hoped for.
Now we are expecting a third little one and we have hired Caroline again. I can't imagine this journey without the support Caroline offers. She really does have experience with high risk, prematurity, cesarean, and bedrest...and she is AMAZING.
