Testimonial for Lynn Christensen, CD(DONA), CLC, LCCE
Our family has had the great fortune of having Lynn attend the birth of two of our sons, in 2011 and in 2014. The 2011 birth experience was very challenging for me due to a number of reasons, and although I ended up having a c-section, Lynn helped me advocate for myself so that we had explored every option before going into surgery. More importantly, Lynn's encouragement is the reason that I perservered through a very trying breastfeeding experience, made even harder in a hospital environment that was not very supportive of breastfeeding. I went from mainly formula feeding my child to breastfeeding and pumping to exclusively breasfeeding within 6 weeks, and I owe a lot of that successful transition to the encouragement of Lynn.
When I became pregnant in 2014, I sought Lynn's advice on a obgyn/midwife group that would be more suited to my needs and wishes, which included attempting a VBAC. With her guidance and expertise, I found a group thaat was right for me and Lynn was amazing as our support during the birth experience. We were successful in the VBAC and Lynn's presence was calming, reassuring, and so encouraging throughout the whole process. She employs a lot of techniques during the birth process and will tailor her methods based on what is right for you at that moment.
I am so grateful to Lynn for helping me have the birth experience I have always wanted. I will recommend her without hesitation to anyone planning to have a baby.
