I left my OB at 32 weeks to seek out a team that was going to support my desire to have a natural childbirth. I knew that I wanted to work with Melanie from our first phone conversation. I loved her energy, respected her knowledge and felt like I was talking with an old friend. Melanie also introduced me to my new OB and renewed my sense of confidence and excitement for the birth I was going to have in the coming 8 weeks.
My husband and I completely trusted Melanie, and with her by our side, we didn’t need to worry about any of the details of what was going on. I was allowed to just be in the moment and she made everything seemed fluid. It was like she was always anticipating what I needed and either made suggestions for things my husband could do to support me or quickly stepped in her self. Melanie encouraged me to keep going when I got scared, and taught me to trust my body to do what it was built to do.
We couldn't imagine going through labor without her and (hopefully) look forward to going through this journey with her again.
