Testimonial for Joli Ammons
I first met Joli through my midwife. I was looking for somebody who could offer support throughout my pregnancy and also to help me with ways of dealing with pain through the birthing process. When I first met Joli she was lovely, kind, and just really easy to get along with. My husband and I felt very comfortable with her. She was there and available for any questions I had and even though I worked in the medical field she didn't make me feel incompetent with questions that I asked about anything related to the pregnancy. When I went into labor, Joli was there as quickly as she could and she helped me throughout the entire process. I had to have the baby at the hospital though I start at the birthing center. I had some complications and Joil was there as I was being transported to the hospital. One of things I really loved about her was that she acted as my advocate telling the doctor on call that I did not want to have a C-section despite the fact they wanted to do it. Many times you may be too tired or feeling the effects of the anesthesia and having somebody there to be able to serve as an advacate for you is so crucial. Had she not been there I may have had a C-section which would have totally crushed me- she was able to point out to the nurses that the baby monitor was not on properly, which led to a false reading of frequenct decelerations. Even my mother who sometimes is very difficult to please loved Joil, so in my book she is a WINNER!! I will definitely use Joli again if I am blessed to have another pregnancy.
