Testimonial for Kathleen Wilson
When my husband and I first started our pregnancy journey I was lost, confused and overwhelmed. I'm honestly not a huge fan of doctors or hospitals so we decided to use a birthing center. At that point I learned what a "doula" was. After interviewing 3, Kathleen was definitely the option for us. My husband was a little skeptical at first, but he was happy that I was happy. After our first meeting once we hired Kathleen, I felt a huge sigh of relief. She was “in control”, but not controlling, and I could tell that if at any point during my labor and delivery, if things weren't going right, she would be my voice when I couldn't be. That ALONE was worth hiring her. She educated us on posture, baby positioning, nutrition, that sex was super important during pregnancy, and that above all, she was there to HELP my husband be there for me, NOT take over his job. We always felt important to her and always had her undivided attention. We also took her Rebel Birth class and WOW, was that an eye opener. It was empowering to know that WE had a voice about how we wanted our delivery to go…that we had options. We didn’t just have to go along with the mainstream and accept it if we didn’t want to. During L and D, Kathleen was cool as a cucumber. She fed me, gave me water, and tried her best to alleviate the horrendous back labor I was having, coached my husband through the hard parts and helped us deliver our beautiful baby girl. We are convinced that without Kathleen, this whole process would not have gone as smoothly. My husband was very happy we hired her and isn’t a skeptic anymore. Her Friday mom’s group is awesome as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Kathleen to anyone who wants a beautiful experience. She is a wealth of information and her knowledge base is just enormous. We have become good friends though this whole process and we will certainly be using her again on baby number 2.
