Joanne helped welcome both our children into the world and I honestly do not know what I would have done without her. I was worried a douala may take the place of my husband but that was absolutely not the case. She was wonderful at including him and showing him how to help me. She is amazing at making position suggestions right when you need them and I was able to birth both children naturally thanks to all her help and encouragment.
Another benefit to her is she works really well with the hospital/birthing teams. We had our children at UNC and because she knew the team there so well they welcomed her with open arms and she was a godsend when both of my births resulted in post labor hemmorages and emergency procedures. The hospital allowed her to stay up by my head and her calming voice explaining what was happening was likely what saved me, both times.
I will be forever greatful to her for the experience she allowed us to have.
She is simply wonderful!
